Lucky Pheasant Wool Blend Beanie ($45) It’s a ribbed, fold-up beanie made with wool for a relaxed, casual style. Wearing this is a great way to keep my head warm on a cold day while staying stylish.

A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles ($16.59)
In 1922, Count Alexander Rostov is deemed an unrepentant aristocrat by a Bolshevik tribunal, and is sentenced to house arrest in the Metropol, a grand hotel across the street from the Kremlin. Rostov, an indomitable man of erudition and wit, has never worked a day in his life, and must now live in an attic room while some of the most tumultuous decades in Russian history are unfolding outside the hotel’s doors. Unexpectedly, his reduced circumstances provide him entry into a much larger world of emotional discovery.
Brimming with humor, a glittering cast of characters, and one beautifully rendered scene after another, this singular novel casts a spell as it relates the count’s endeavor to gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be a man of purpose.
The back cover features a brief summary of the book as well as short reviews.
The story revolves around Count Alexander Rostov as he is ordered to spend the rest of his days inside a luxurious hotel.
Everything changed when he met a young girl whose fate in life depends on him. Count Alexander Rostov indeed proved himself a gentleman in Moscov by doing his best to give the girl the future that she deserves.
It’s another good set of items from Culture Carton! I love the accessories and lifestyle items this month, and the book was a nice read as well. Among the items, I particularly loved the manicure set in my box this month. It comes with a case for easy storage and also to help ensure that I won’t easily lose these grooming essentials. I also liked the beanie that I can wear on a cold day, and the ceramic mug for enjoying warm drinks. Culture Carton curated these items with the aim of improving even the simplest aspects of daily life, and I think they did a really great job with it!
