The best part?? Once you finish "Murdling," you can use your sleuthing skills on Volume 2, Volume 3, and a whole BUNCH of other themed Murdle books — PLUS a Murdle board game!! 

Promising review: "The puzzles are a lot of fun, but the characters, story lines, and other details take the Murdle experience to another level. I have no idea how the author came up with such creativity! You can Murdle solo or with friends. I look forward to future volumes, but this one will keep me busy for a while!" —Liz Gately

Promising review: "I honestly use this product every day, and it's so amazing. A great Lululemon alternative! So many pockets, really great color, easy to throw in the wash, easy to adjust the straps, and I really like how it clips in FRONT of you so you don't have to worry about anyone unclipping it from the back. Really great bag, I love it so much." —laura kulish

Promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me. Smells great, too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little so the salt texture was visible, scrubbed it all over my face so there was plenty of product, then used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like me." —LuckLocust

Promising review: "I remember wanting these as a child and never got the chance to have any in my room. So for my daughter’s room I put these up and they light up very well in the night. The size is small, but they are easy to stick on." —Nichole Favela

I own these sunnies, and as someone who has gone through a bajillion sunnies over the years, these are by far my absolute favorite pair. For starters, I have an inability to keep a pair of sunglasses for more than a month... Maybe two? (Oops.) I've had these for seven months now (and am feeling pretty darn proud of it), and have gotten many compliments on them. No one believes they cost less than $20 on Amazon. I'm typically used to bigger frames, so I didn't think these would look good on me, but they do (and literally all of my friends who have asked to try them on look equally fab in them, too). Truly cannot recommend these enough!!

Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action. 

I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn't even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the E.l.f. tubing mascara formula blows all the others I've tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I'm like ??? was I even wearing mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I'm a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I'm wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black.

Promising review: "This is a gorgeous puzzle. The colors are lovely and the image quality is great. The pieces are really nice quality and fit together perfectly. I put it together in the space of two afternoons while watching TV." —Gracie

I recently purchased this in the shade, "Brown Sugar," and love it! It provides such a nice tint and smells so good. The one thing I will say is that I don't find it to be as hydrating as I would prefer, considering the price point. With that being said, I am a diehard fan of Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula swivel stick and apply it several times a day, so I wasn't really seeking a hydrating lip product as much as a subtle tint product, which this definitely is. Just something to keep in mind!

Promising review: "I was influenced to purchase this lip butter balm and honestly don’t regret it one bit! It’s the perfect size to carry in my purse, and I use it throughout the day whenever my lips need a boost. It feels super conditioning and hydrating without being sticky, plus the sheer tint and subtle vanilla scent are lovely. Definitely a great everyday lip care product that I’ll keep reaching for!" —B24

Promising review: "The Medicube Collagen Peel-Off Mask is so good! It leaves my skin feeling super soft and refreshed. It’s easy to apply, dries quickly, and peeling it off is oddly satisfying.

Check out a TikTok of the phone umbrella in action. 

Promising review: "I got this little umbrella because I'm always outside for work, and the sun shines bright. I always have to put information in my phone for work, and sometimes I can’t step into the shade to do so. The sun protection is good, and the performance and size are perfect for my phone. I’ve had people ask where I got it because they also need one." —Garza Jboss

Promising reviews: "Oh Michael, what can be said about your most hot of honeys that has yet to be said? My tongue yearns for the sweet burn as my mouth opens almost on its own in anticipation of this honey. I've spent days, nay, weeks obsessing over the feeling of the honey drizzling into my mouth and down my chin as I try so desperately to lap up every last drop of this sweet, spicy, and undoubtedly succulent honey. The honey has nearly consumed my entire life as I cannot prepare a dish without looking into the pantry longingly, wondering if this honey will improve yet another unexpected food item (it always does) and bring me endless joy and satisfaction. I have nary a doubt that if you, a fellow consumer, purchase this tantalizing, appetizing, incredibly satisfying honey, you will NOT regret it. Please, I beg of you, do yourself a favor and put this on every food item you shove down your gullet for the rest of your life. Sincerely, Michelle Hot Honey." —yeehaw dandy

Nice and cool on the face, they leave a great serum product you can dab into your face for more absorption. My skin felt soft and refreshed afterwards. Perfect for a pick-me-up, and there are enough in the pack to have spa dates with your friends." —Angela Nottingham

BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord loves these! Here's her review:

I'm a long-ish distance runner, and these were certainly an interesting experience for my feet! You slide them on and, after a few minutes, feel a tingling, mildly burning (in a good way) sensation. It doesn't quite numb your feet, but it relaxes them. I kept them on for 30 minutes and then toweled my feet off, and the tingling sensation slowly faded over the next 30 minutes. After that, my feet felt very refreshed and relaxed at a time of day when they're usually aching from all the miles I put in. The whole thing was a mess-free, easy process, and I will definitely keep them on hand for longer run days! 

Promising review: "Very soothing. My husband and l used these on our European vacation, and they definitely felt good on our feet!" —KS2018
