WINNER OF THE 2017 PULITZER PRIZE FOR GENERAL NONFICTION In Evicted, Princeton sociologist and MacArthur "Genius" Matthew Desmond follows eight families in Milwaukee as they struggle to keep a roof over their heads. Hailed as "wrenching and revelatory" (The Nation), "vivid and unsettling" (New York Review of Books), Evicted transforms our understanding of poverty and economic exploitation while providing fresh ideas for solving one of 21st-century America's most devastating problems. Its unforgettable scenes of hope and loss remind us of the centrality of home, without which nothing else is possible.

Look nice, not sturdy or supportive
Size: 17 Inch, Color: Dark Blue
The color and thickness of the shelf is great. Very easy to install. But the wall mount portion is cheaply made and doesn’t support the shelf as well as it should. Once mounted the shelf leans forward and isn’t sturdy. After mounting, I found my items had slid off end up on the floor.

The color is beautiful
Size: 17 Inch, Color: Dark Blue
These are beautiful! I bought them for my Grandsons Baseball room. We haven’t put them up yet. They will be a great addition to his red, white, and blue baseball room!

Very solid and nice looking
Color: Natural, Size: 72 Inch
Very solid. Mounting hardware is sturdy when you mount it into the studs of the wall. I weigh 180 lbs and I sat on it with no issue

Bonus secret compartment in these beauties 😉
Absolutely LOVE these real wood shelves. The perfect depth to actually be functional in the bathroom! Came with all the hardware to install and very well packaged--you can tell a lot of care went into these. The hardware was tucked into a carved out notch on the backside of the shelf, which now we can use as a secret compartment! (Seriously, no one would find it there if you wanted to hide some keys or cash! 🤭) The metal drywall mounting brackets didn't work (or we just weren't using them correctly?), but we had other drywall mounts, so it wasn't a problem for us. Highly recommend these high quality shelves. 👍

Be aware, questionable quality
Color: Natural, Size: 36 Inch
Great idea, but overall a huge pain. Had to order and return multiple times to get a shelf that didn't have crumbling edges, jagged wood filler, or giant cracks.
