More of a 3.5 star book. What a fun adventure! Not the perfect book, but definitely a great start to the new year for me. Antiquarian book seller on the hunt for the true author of Shakespeare's plays. I've never read so much about repairing books and it sounds fascinating. Do you think it's too late to explore archiving as a career? I was often reminded of a couple of other books that I really enjoyed: The Swan Thieves and the Thirteenth Tale. It's a fast read and completely worth the time!
