Hailed by reviewers as "an electrifying debut" (Baltimore Sun) and "perhaps the best evocation of New Orleans ever to appear in print" (Richmond Times-Dispatch), Yellow Jack has given Southern literature its own intoxicating hybrid of Caleb Carr, Flannery O'Connor, and Vladimir Nabokov. Russell's "virtuoso storytelling, evocative prose and original conception mark his first book] as a significant work that we can only hope will be followed by many more" (Chicago Tribune). Yellow Jack is a ribald, picaresque trip through an 1840s New Orleans saturated with sex, drugs, death, and corruption. In this "luminously haunting" (Entertainment Weekly) portrait of decadence, daguerrotypist Claude Marchand becomes hopelessly entangled with both a voodoo-adept octoroon mistress and the erotically precocious daughter of a prominent New Orleans family. "Russell has distilled the New Orleans of the mid-1800s, the terrible fever of the title, and the savage lives of the characters into a novel of terrible beauty."

fast bathroom touch-ups
Great for fast bathroom touch-ups -- that four-times-a-day wiping away drips, toothpaste, and splashes. Sensitive formula won't dry out your skin. These are great to have on hand.
I buy tons of these for disaster prep -- when there's no water, it's nice to have a way to keep fresh. Also good for barter, if SHTF.

Great Makeup Wipes
These baby wipes are, hands down, the best baby wipes I have ever used. I use them for taking off my makeup before washing my face (much cheaper than buying makeup wipes). They are durable wipes and they really break down the makeup, yet they are super soft on the skin. They have a light fresh smell too, which is good because I use them on my face.

Perfect for my babies
The Pampers Sensitive Wipes, 448 count, seem to be the best for my children/ babies. After using Costco and other cheaper wipes that caused rashes and other issues, we discovered Pampers Sensitive Wipes. They not only worked great cleaning up the typical baby messes, they did not cause any rashes after use. P & G seem to always be on top of providing quality products to their customers.

Sensitive and Versatile
Wow! This is a big box. I wanted to try some new wipes for the barn and camping. The fact that they were labelled sensitive attracted me to them. It might have been a good idea to try a smaller package first. Fortunately I'm delight with these.
The wipes have a soft cloth feel that's not as thin and synthetic feeling as some others. They seem to pick up more of what I'm trying to wipe when some others just smear stuff around.
With such a big supply, it's been easy to spread these around to several places to have them on hand. The Prime Pantry price was low enough that I don't feel bad using disposables.

Great for sensitive skin but they could use more texture
I am glad these don't cause a rash on my son's sensitive skin but I don't really like how slippery/slimey these wipes are since it makes it harder to clean my kid's bottom. I have to use more wipes than I'd like because a single wipe doesn't really have the texture to get all the mess off. I do like these wipes to give my kids to wipe their faces and hands since my kids say they are soft, but their softness makes them less effective at wiping off messes on the bottom of my toddler. I think I will stick with less expensive brands of wipes that have a texture that is better at cleaning off my little guy.
