"It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me think." --Liane Moriarty, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Big Little Lies


This is how
a family keeps a secret...and how that secret ends up keeping them.

This is how a family lives happily ever after...until happily ever after becomes complicated.

This is how children change...and then change the world.

This is Claude. He's five years old, the youngest of five brothers, and loves peanut butter sandwiches. He also loves wearing a dress, and dreams of being a princess.

When he grows up, Claude says, he wants to be a girl.

Rosie and Penn want Claude to be whoever Claude wants to be. They're just not sure they're ready to share that with the world. Soon the entire family is keeping Claude's secret. Until one day it explodes.

Laurie Frankel's This Is How It Always Is is a novel about revelations, transformations, fairy tales, and family. And it's about the ways this is how it always is: Change is always hard and miraculous and hard again, parenting is always a leap into the unknown with crossed fingers and full hearts, children grow but not always according to plan. And families with secrets don't get to keep them forever.

Good product, decent stick
it's okay. The first night I had it on my monitor one of my cats yanked it down somehow and after that it lost all it's stick entirely. I was upset about it at first but after some hardcore taping it seems to be holding up just fine. The sticky parts that it comes with don't seem to be as strong as I thought but It's not too hard to fix and the headphones stand part itself is fairly well made and a good space saver. Overall I really enjoy this purchase. I do think there's room to improve on the hold and stick to the monitor, but it's so nice and convenient to have my headphones off my desk space completely that I'm willing to MacGyver the hold to make it work.

W Monitor Stand
I’m using this on a Gigabyte M28U, and it works really well for keeping my headset off the desk and making my setup look clean. The mount itself is made of plastic and holds the headset securely with no issues once installed. That said, this is a pretty specific fit situation for this monitor. The top of the M28U just barely fits the mount, and the slight curve at the top makes installation a bit more difficult than expected. The adhesive strips appear strong, but I had to hold it in place for about 5–10 minutes in the area where it wasn’t fully sticking so it could properly bond to the curved surface. Also, I’m not totally sure if it’s just this monitor, but once the headset is on the mount, it leans slightly toward the side you place it on. It’s not a dealbreaker, but it’s something I noticed depending on how the weight is distributed. My only suggestion is that it might be better if the mount was made from a slightly flexible metal or material so it could gently bend and better conform to curved monitor tops. That would make installation easier on monitors like this. Other than that, no complaints. Will update if it fails, hoping it doesn’t lol

Sleek and sturdy, conforms well to most monitor backs
Very sturdy, no flex or sag when hanging midsize DT 900 Pro X. Applied well to my curved monitor back after prepping the surface with isopropyl alcohol. The 9 different mounting points give a lot of flexibility and conform to the monitor shape. Great value considering it saves space on my desk, lower maintenance; does not need dusting like a separate stand. The headband pad is very soft (silicone?) with gentle curve that should not leave sharp indentations in headband. I do wish the headband pad were a bit longer for hanging the headset cable when not in use.

Space Saving Headset Stand
Needed a headset stand that saves space, perfect for my gaming setup. Glue strips are holding up so far.
