Before there was Lois Lowry's The Giver or M. T. Anderson's Feed, there was Robert Cormier's I Am the Cheese, a subversive classic that broke new ground for YA literature. A boy's search for his father becomes a desperate journey to unlock a secret past. But the past must not be remembered if the boy is to survive. As he searches for the truth that hovers at the edge of his mind, the boy--and readers--arrive at a shattering conclusion. "An absorbing, even brilliant job. The book is assembled in mosaic fashion: a tiny chip here, a chip there. . . . Everything is related to something else; everything builds and builds to a fearsome climax. . . . Cormier] has the knack of making horror out of the ordinary, as the masters of suspense know how to do."--The New York Times Book Review"A horrifying tale of government corruption, espionage, and counter espionage told by an innocent young victim. . . . The buildup of suspense is terrific."--School Library Journal, starred review An ALA Notable Children's Book

Good quality athletic shorts
First note, these are unlined shorts since the description is not clear about it one way or the other. The material is light weight and has a decent amount of stretch in all directions. They came vacuum sealed and double bagged. The waist band is wide and comfortable, and the inseam is right at 5". The drawstring has large plastic aglets. The two front pockets are deep enough to secure an oversized phone or your keys. I'm typically between a 32" and 34" waist, and the mediums are a little on the snug side but not too tight. If you are between sizes, I would recommend to size up. Overall, the quality is nice and there were no loose threads or stitching. With the light weight fabric you barely know they are there and are a comfortable as whatever you wear underneath.

Love these for casual wear
I bought these as running shorts but I've reserved them for casual wear. They are a flattering color that goes well with the current prevailing style, and they are trim and straight and look well made rather than athletic. Would they work as athletic shorts? Yep for sure, but it'd be a waste to keep these only for the gym.

Good shorts
Lightweight shorts, good fit/cut. The fabric is thin and seems like it is one layer. Not the greatest quality but good for the price. Material breathes well and is great for workouts. I do question durability but after a couple of washes, they’re still going strong.
