By: Julia AlvarezFinalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, a “phenomenal, indispensable” (USA Today) exploration of the Latina “sweet fifteen” celebration, by the bestselling author of How the García Girls Lost Their Accents and In the Time of the Butterflies.
The quinceañera, a celebration of a Latina girl’s fifteenth birthday, has become a uniquely American trend. This lavish party with ball gowns, multi-tiered cakes, limousines, and extravagant meals is often as costly as a prom or a wedding. But many Latina girls feel entitled to this rite of passage, marking a girl’s entrance into womanhood, and expect no expense to be spared, even in working-class families.
Acclaimed author Julia Alvarez explores the history and cultural significance of the “quince” in the United States, and the consequences of treating teens like princesses. Through her observations of a quince in Queens, interviews with other quince girls, and the memories of her own experience as a young immigrant, Alvarez presents a thoughtful and entertaining portrait of a rapidly growing multicultural phenomenon, and passionately emphasizes the importance of celebrating Latina womanhood.

Excellent press at a great value.
Style: 12x10
Press works very well. Heats up quickly and timer is a great feature. Have had no issue pressing vinyl transfers and embroidered patches. Great quality for the price. Much better than using a clothing iron.

A Compact and Efficient Mug Press – Perfect for DIY Projects!
The VEVOR Mug Heat Press has been a fantastic addition to my DIY crafting tools! Its compact and lightweight design makes it easy to handle, and the results are consistently professional. Whether I’m customizing 11oz coffee mugs or 15oz tumblers, this machine handles both sizes with ease.
The heat press heats up quickly and applies even pressure, ensuring vibrant and long-lasting sublimation transfers. The included accessories, like tape and gloves, are a thoughtful bonus that make the process even more convenient.
As someone who personalizes items for holiday gifts and small business orders, this machine has been a game-changer. It’s easy to operate, even for beginners, and doesn’t take up much space on my workstation.
If you’re looking for an affordable, user-friendly, and reliable mug press for your creative projects, the VEVOR Mug Heat Press is an excellent choice. Highly recommended for hobbyists and small business owners alike!

Fits in a standard tape dispenser
Number of Items: 12
First of all, I like the width of this tape when I don't need the full width of standard 20mm. It's great for delicate projects and minimizing taping over two-sided sublimations like keychains. There's just enough adhesion and it comes off cleanly so it does the job. If you don't need the full width of 20mm, this is a great value.
For those looking for a compatible dispenser, these rolls fit into a standard weighted Scotch tape base like the C-38. There will be room around the core because these rolls have a larger diameter, and room on either side because the rolls are thinner than standard Scotch tape, but once you pull the tape onto the blade, the roll remains taut and it's easy to remove pieces of your desired length with one hand.
