I liked that the narrator was a reformed forger. I liked the way he talked about forging and the beauty he gave it. The romance and protection angle was okay. I guess I just wasn't sure what to expect when I started this one, so I think that affected the way I read it.
I quite enjoyed this one. I'll admit, that writing felt a little clunky and dry, for lack of a better explanation. However, the setting of the rare book world was fascinating and kept me interested. The mystery itself wasn't the most enthralling. I figured out the twist from very early on, but again, I still found myself invested enough in the story and characters to keep turning the pages. Invested enough, in fact, that I plan on reading the second book in the series soon.
