Lee Mandelo's debut Summer Sons is a sweltering, queer Southern Gothic that crosses Appalachian street racing with academic intrigue, all haunted by a hungry ghost.

Andrew and Eddie did everything together, best friends bonded more deeply than brothers, until Eddie left Andrew behind to start his graduate program at Vanderbilt. Six months later, only days before Andrew was to join him in Nashville, Eddie dies of an apparent suicide. He leaves Andrew a horrible inheritance: a roommate he doesn't know, friends he never asked for, and a gruesome phantom that hungers for him.

As Andrew searches for the truth of Eddie's death, he uncovers the lies and secrets left behind by the person he trusted most, discovering a family history soaked in blood and death. Whirling between the backstabbing academic world where Eddie spent his days and the circle of hot boys, fast cars, and hard drugs that ruled Eddie's nights, the walls Andrew has built against the world begin to crumble.

And there is something awful lurking, waiting for those walls to fall.

Multi use…
Style: 200 Count, Style: 200 Count
I love these Vanity Fair Napkins. They fit perfectly in my counter dispenser. They are a nice, attractive napkin whether for breakfast, lunch or dinner. And they are at a good price point. But truth be told, they come in handy when you have a cold. Grab a handful and take along with you for blowing your nose. They are stronger than bath tissue, yet softer than a paper towel and strong enough for all your congestion.

Reliable and High-Quality for Daily Use
Style: 400 Count, Style: 400 Count
These napkins have a great weight to them. They are surprisingly thick, which adds to their sturdiness—they don't fall apart the moment they get slightly damp like cheaper brands. The size is perfect for everyday meals. Because they are soft yet strong, they are a breeze for ease of use, whether you're cleaning up a quick spill or just setting the table. The bright white color looks clean and classic, making them versatile enough for both casual lunches and nicer dinners. With the 400-count value pack, you really get excellent value for money. It’s much more convenient to buy in bulk so you aren't constantly running back to the store.

Great Quality and Value for Everyday Use!
Style: 400 Count, Style: 400 Count
I’m really happy with these napkins! The Vanity Fair Everyday Napkins 2‑Ply (400 Count) are soft, durable, and perfect for everyday meals. They are strong enough to handle spills without tearing easily, which makes them great for family dinners and quick clean-ups. I also love the value pack — having 400 napkins means they last a long time and I don’t have to keep buying more every week. The quality is much better than many basic napkins, but still very affordable. Overall, these are reliable, practical, and a great addition to any kitchen. I would definitely purchase them again!

Good quantity and quality suitable for daily use
Style: 400 Count, Style: 400 Count
I bought the 400-unit Vanity Fair Everyday napkin pack and it seemed like a practical option for daily use at home. The package comes well sealed and the napkins have a standard size that works well for both fast meals and family dinners. They are resistant enough to clean small spills and do not break easily when used. They also have a soft texture to the touch, which makes them comfortable for daily use. I like that the package is large, since it yields a lot and avoids having to buy so often. In general, I think it is a good option if you are looking for a functional napkin, with a good presentation and a convenient amount for the home.

They look clean and classic on the table.
Style: 200 Count, Style: 200 Count
I really like these napkins. They are soft and have a cloth-like feel, which makes them nicer to use than basic paper napkins. The 2-ply material feels strong and doesn’t fall apart easily when wiping hands or small spills, so I don’t need to use many at once. They look clean and classic on the table, so they work well for everyday meals, snacks, or casual gatherings. Having 200 in a pack means they last a long time, and they are good value for daily use.
