"This inventive retelling of Pride and Prejudice charms."--People"A fun, page-turning romp and a thought-provoking look at the class-obsessed strata of Pakistani society."--NPR Alys Binat has sworn never to marry--until an encounter with one Mr. Darsee at a wedding makes her reconsider.
A scandal and vicious rumor concerning the Binat family have destroyed their fortune and prospects for desirable marriages, but Alys, the second and most practical of the five Binat daughters, has found happiness teaching English literature to schoolgirls. Knowing that many of her students won't make it to graduation before dropping out to marry and have children, Alys teaches them about Jane Austen and her other literary heroes and hopes to inspire the girls to dream of more. When an invitation arrives to the biggest wedding their small town has seen in years, Mrs. Binat, certain that their luck is about to change, excitedly sets to work preparing her daughters to fish for rich, eligible bachelors. On the first night of the festivities, Alys's lovely older sister, Jena, catches the eye of Fahad "Bungles" Bingla, the wildly successful--and single--entrepreneur. But Bungles's friend Valentine Darsee is clearly unimpressed by the Binat family. Alys accidentally overhears his unflattering assessment of her and quickly dismisses him and his snobbish ways. As the days of lavish wedding parties unfold, the Binats wait breathlessly to see if Jena will land a proposal--and Alys begins to realize that Darsee's brusque manner may be hiding a very different man from the one she saw at first glance. Told with wry wit and colorful prose, Unmarriageable is a charming update on Jane Austen's beloved novel and an exhilarating exploration of love, marriage, class, and sisterhood. Praise for Unmarriageable "Delightful . . . Unmarriageable introduces readers to a rich Muslim culture. . . . Kamal] observes family dramas with a satiric eye and treats readers to sparkling descriptions of a days-long wedding ceremony, with its high-fashion pageantry and higher social stakes."--Star Tribune "Thoroughly charming."--New York Post " A] funny, sometimes romantic, often thought-provoking glimpse into Pakistani culture, one which adroitly illustrates the double standards women face when navigating sex, love, and marriage. This is a must-read for devout Austenites."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Fantastic Fragrance Free Vitamin C
Really nice Vitamin C product. It goes on nicely without any off putting scent. I tried this one after trying another Vitamin C serum my dermatologist recommended, but the consistency and smell of the other one makes this one a dream to use in comparison.
Instead of a dropper, it is dispersed using a pump. The consistency is thin, but not watery. It does not leave my skin feeling sticky. I love not having it drip all over my face. Leaves a nice glow without being shiny.
Time will tell how effective it is at fading brown spots, but as with the other Good Molecules products, this is a great product for a great price.

Great buy and a have to try
This is a very nice vitamin C serum/cream. It spreads nicely, so you do need a lot. A little really does go a long way. I wash my face, apply serums, and then apply this on top before my moisturizer. It doesn't pill up at all for me. In fact, it layers really well. It's dry time is fairly quick, and it's a GREAT value for your money. It's also not oily at all.
I've been using it for over a week now and I can tell my complexion is brighter and the one dark spots are s bit lighter. I'd say it's pretty effective.

Nice creamy texture
I like this serum because it's more like a cream rather than the oily types of serums. It goes on nice and softens my skin. I'll know more over time when I use it longer.

Brightened My Skin and Feels Lightweight
I’ve been using this Vitamin C serum consistently and I really like how lightweight and gentle it feels on my skin. It absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky feeling and layers well with my moisturizer. After a few weeks of use, my skin started looking brighter and more even, especially around dark spots and dull areas.
I also appreciate that it did not irritate my skin or cause breakouts. The packaging is simple and the product feels high quality for the price. A great addition to my skincare routine!
