Bookish Samantha has always hidden behind the words of others--namely, her favorite characters in literature. Now, as she discovers love beyond the pages of her favorite novels, she will learn to write her own story.

Sam is, to say the least, bookish. An English major of the highest order, her diet has always been Austen, Dickens, and Shakespeare. The problem is, both her prose and conversation tend to be more Elizabeth Bennet than Samantha Moore.

But life for the twenty-three-year-old orphan is about to get stranger than fiction. An anonymous, Dickensian benefactor (calling himself Mr. Knightley) offers to put Sam through Northwestern University's prestigious Medill School of Journalism. There is only one catch: Sam must write frequent letters to the mysterious donor, detailing her progress.

As Sam's memory mingles with that of eligible novelist Alex Powell, her letters to Mr. Knightley become increasingly confessional. While Alex draws Sam into a world of warmth and literature that feels like it's straight out of a book, old secrets are drawn to light. And as Sam learns to love and trust Alex and herself, she learns once again how quickly trust can be broken.

Reminding us all that our own true character is not meant to be hidden, Katherine Reay's debut novel follows one young woman's journey as she sheds her protective persona and embraces the person she was meant to become.

What an incredible value and amazing quality!
When this came up, I had to get it! I have several differrent cigar cutters, punches, and other accessories, but none compare to this one! It feels like a high quality knife, but is a cigar tool that does it all. I thought it was weighted, but was only the quality steel and components I was feeling in my hand. I took it to the cigar store I go to and asked if they had seen anything like this. They said yes, but are usually $75+ when you find them. It opens in your palm with a simple squeeze between the fingers and palm. The steel feels like quality in your hand, and when you open it and see both a V and standard cutter as the main parts, it seems like that's all it does. Nope.....it also has a poker on one side and a circle punch that folds out on one end. It is so easy to use and is something you will want to show your cigar smoking friends, as well as sharing it with them. It works extremely well and is an incredible value at this price. Highly recommended for any cigar smoker!

Great looking cigar cutter, would make a nice gift
Nicely made and feels pretty good quality for the price. It's not heirloom quality or anything but it's very solid and made to last. Finish is great, it feels good in hand and has no sharp edges or blemishes as is common on many of these products. This includes a pretty complete set of all the cutters you could need all in one device, would make either a nice starter tool or would be a great gift to upgrade to if you know anyone still using one of those cheap plastic ones from the cigar shop. The steel appears to be chinese made and not super high quality, but it's also unlikely to see hard use. I would expect it to last most of a lifetime without sharpening if only used on clean cigars and not abused.

The Ultimate Cigar Toolkit: A 5-in-1 Must-Have for Aficionados
​This 5-in-1 Cigar Cutter Set is an incredibly thoughtful and practical piece of gear, making it a fantastic gift for any cigar enthusiast—or a brilliant upgrade for yourself. While it's not a 'perfect 5-star' tool in every single function, its sheer versatility and excellent ergonomic design earn it a very strong four stars. ​The main attraction is the built-in versatility. Having a Cigar V Cutter, Flat Cutter, and a Cigar Punch all in one compact, ergonomically-designed unit is a game-changer. It eliminates the need to carry three separate tools and the frustration of realizing you left your preferred cutter at home. The cutters themselves are sharp, providing clean, crisp cuts right out of the box, though, like any blade, their longevity will depend on regular maintenance. ​Where this set truly shines and elevates itself beyond a simple cutter is the inclusion of the Cigar Draw Enhancer and the simple yet effective Cigar Holder. The draw enhancer is a lifesaver for those tightly packed cigars that refuse to cooperate; it's easy to use and significantly improves the smoking experience when needed. The holder is a small but welcome addition, giving you a clean place to rest your cigar when a proper ashtray isn't available. ​The ergonomic design is well-executed. It feels substantial and secure in the hand, which is crucial for making a confident cut. It has a premium look and weight that makes it an impressive item to unbox and use. ​The only reason this set doesn't quite hit a full five stars is minor: while all tools are functional, the punch and draw enhancer, while very useful, can occasionally be a little tricky to deploy or stow quickly compared to their standalone counterparts. For example, a dedicated V-cutter might offer a slightly deeper, more customized cut. However, this is an acceptable trade-off for the unparalleled convenience of having all five tools together. ​Overall: If you value convenience, functionality, and portability, this 5-in-1 set is an excellent investment. It’s an ideal gift that says, "I want you to have the best experience possible with your cigars," and is genuinely useful on any occasion—whether it’s a Christmas stocking stuffer or a Father's Day present. You won't regret adding this versatile piece to your collection.
