The Book Forger by Joseph Hone
informative
mysterious
medium-paced
4.5
Loved this biblio mystery. It took me into a world I knew little about, and reimagined that world so brilliantly I could smell the leather bindings, feel the creaks of the wooden floors amongst the shelves and imagine the thrill of the ‘chase’. It was a great delve into obsession, greed and the ugliness of arrogance. I feel it should have had a content warning though for desecrating of books - my heart didn’t like it!!
