The Art Forger by B.A. Shapiro (4 stars)


message 1506: by Megan (new)

Megan (lahairoi) | 7470 comments Just completed #22 (steampunk) - Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman. This book was good but not great. While I found this book more enjoyable than Gaiman's more recent books, it still had some sensational, gratuitous elements that I found distasteful. The story was interesting, and I did like that he challenged preconceived notions. Worth reading. 3.5 stars
