The Instant #1 New York Times Bestseller

"Promise Me, Dad is a brisk, often uplifting read, a consequence of its author's congenital jollity and irrepressible candor."
- Vanity Fair

A deeply moving memoir about the year that would forever change both a family and a country.

In November 2014, thirteen members of the Biden family gathered on Nantucket for Thanksgiving, a tradition they had been celebrating for the past forty years; it was the one constant in what had become a hectic, scrutinized, and overscheduled life. The Thanksgiving holiday was a much-needed respite, a time to connect, a time to reflect on what the year had brought, and what the future might hold. But this year felt different from all those that had come before. Joe and Jill Biden's eldest son, Beau, had been diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor fifteen months earlier, and his survival was uncertain. "Promise me, Dad," Beau had told his father. "Give me your word that no matter what happens, you're going to be all right." Joe Biden gave him his word.

Promise Me, Dad chronicles the year that followed, which would be the most momentous and challenging in Joe Biden's extraordinary life and career. Vice President Biden traveled more than a hundred thousand miles that year, across the world, dealing with crises in Ukraine, Central America, and Iraq. When a call came from New York, or Capitol Hill, or Kyiv, or Baghdad--"Joe, I need your help"--he responded. For twelve months, while Beau fought for and then lost his life, the vice president balanced the twin imperatives of living up to his responsibilities to his country and his responsibilities to his family. And never far away was the insistent and urgent question of whether he should seek the presidency in 2016.

The year brought real triumph and accomplishment, and wrenching pain. But even in the worst times, Biden was able to lean on the strength of his long, deep bonds with his family, on his faith, and on his deepening friendship with the man in the Oval Office, Barack Obama.

Writing with poignancy and immediacy, Joe Biden allows readers to feel the urgency of each moment, to experience the days when he felt unable to move forward as well as the days when he felt like he could not afford to stop.

This is a book written not just by the vice president, but by a father, grandfather, friend, and husband. Promise Me, Dad is a story of how family and friendships sustain us and how hope, purpose, and action can guide us through the pain of personal loss into the light of a new future.

Better Than Manscape
Color: Gold &black
This little trimmer is incredible. I have had a Manscape for a few years now, but it nipped me and the battery life was garbage. However, this bad boy hasn't cut me once, it charges quick, and lasts forever. My wife and I will both use it back to back and has no issues. She uses it in the shower and it holds up. It's comfortable, doesn't over heat, and works great. Again... I think it's way better than manscape.

Highly recommended
Color: Bright Purple
I recently purchased the OLOV Electric Body Hair Trimmer and I give it a full 5 stars! This isn’t my first time buying from OLOV—my initial purchase was for myself, and I’ve been impressed with its quality and performance. This time, I bought one for my wife, and she absolutely loves it! It’s easy to use, reliable, and delivers excellent results. Highly recommend this trimmer for anyone looking for a dependable grooming tool.

Nice shaver and is easy to use.
Color: Gold &black
The olov electric body hair trimmer does a good job shaving the arms and legs but you have to be careful when shaving the private area . You have to stretch the skin on the privates as you shave between the inner thigh it will nick the skin on the scrotum.The olove is narrow enough to shave the privates.

So good had to buy it twice!
Color: Gold &black
I originally bought this OLOV trimmer in October 2022, and after nearly four years of regular use, I just ordered the exact same one again. Honestly, that’s probably the strongest endorsement I can give. Up until about a month and an half ago, it worked amazingly well. Recently, it started making a buzzing sound and became noticeably less comfortable to use. It began pulling hairs, nicking skin, and generally lost the smooth performance that made me love it in the first place. I tried cleaning it thoroughly and even adding clipper oil, but the loud noise and abrasive trim problems still persist. That said, for a trimmer that costs around $30, getting almost four years of reliable use is more than fair in my book. I barely considered alternatives; I just bought another one because I didn’t want to gamble on something else for a higher entry point. A few things I really like: -Charges quickly. -Holds a charge forever. It’s literally never died on me. Great for travel, and I’ve often left the charger at home for short trips. -Easy to clean and maintain. -Comfortable to use pretty much anywhere on the body. I’ll leave that part to your imagination. 😉 -Excellent value for the money. I’ve seen some reviews mentioning broken plastic teeth on the blade, but mine never broke. No idea what caused the buzzing issue on my old unit, but after nearly four years of service, I can’t complain. Bottom line: If you’re looking for a solid body trimmer that won’t break the bank and can give you years of use, this is easily the best value trimmer I’ve personally used. For the price point, it’s worth trying to experience what a comfortable, snag-free trim is supposed to be like because, before this trimmer, I didn’t even know it was possible. I do think it’s a 5-star product when it works, but considering that mine did eventually fail, I’m giving it 4 stars. But seriously, I don’t think you can go wrong with this. Give it a try!
