This Life Is in Your Hands: One Dream, Sixty Acres, and a Family's Heartbreak"Lyrical and down to earth, wry and heartbreaking, This Life Is in Your Hands is a fascinating and powerful memoir. Melissa Coleman doesn't just tell the story of her family's brave experiment and private tragedy; she brings to life an important and underappreciated chapter of our recent history."

"Lyrical and down-to-earth, wry and heartbreaking, This Life Is in Your Hands is a fascinating and powerful memoir. Melissa Coleman doesn't just tell the story of her family's brave experiment and private tragedy; she brings to life an important and underappreciated chapter of our recent history." --Tom Perrotta

In a work of power and beauty reminiscent of Tobias Wolff, Jeannette Walls, and Dave Eggers, Melissa Coleman delivers a luminous, evocative childhood memoir exploring the hope and struggle behind her family's search for a sustainable lifestyle. With echoes of The Liars' Club and Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight, Coleman's searing chronicle tells the true story of her upbringing on communes and sustainable farms along the rugged Maine coastline in the 1970's, embedded within a moving, personal quest for truth that her experiences produced.

Organic Sunscreen with an Air-Brushed Finish
I've been using the Coola Organic sunscreen on my face for about 5 years now. I love that it protects my skin without dangerous chemicals. The product has virtually no scent and has a pleasant creamy, but not greasy, texture. An additional perk is that it creates an instant "air-brushed" looking finish to my skin. Note: I have found that you have to shake the tube (especially when new) or else the product emerges a bit watery at first. I've always used the non-tinted formula so I can't comment on how the tinted formula works. Also, the "cooling" aspect of the product seems more of hype than reality. But, over all, this is an excellent sunscreen.

So refreshing, you’ll forget it’s sunscreen.
This stuff is fantastic. I love the super fine mist and how easily the pump works. It is soo refreshing and smells like fresh coconut. Ot doesn’t sting or burn my sensitive eyes, and it leaves my skin feeling revitalized and moisturized, not sticky or tacky. It feels amazing when it’s hot outside and you need a quick refresh and it won’t disturb my makeup. Coola is becoming one of my favorite sunscreen brands.

Wonderful hot weather spritz

I used this on a recent cruise to the Mediterranean. A lovely spritz on a hot day really was so refreshing! I highly recommend it! And it smells so good!
