Hobbinol It really does sound irresistible. I plan to see the Emily show at the Morgan next month just before it closes. I'd already stacked this. Maybe it would be great to read on the train to NYC. 7y
ValerieAndBooks I found this one very interesting! The science behind forgeries and all! 7y
LeahBergen @Hobbinol I'm jealous! I love the Morgan and have only been there once (there was a Poe exhibit there at the time). Emily's brother was quite something, too - have you read 7y

LeahBergen @ValerieAndBooks Yes, the science part WAS great, wasn't it? It almost made me want to try my hand at forging. 😂 7y
