Anyone picked this up yet? Dan Brown is probably one of those guilty pleasures for most, but his books are entertaining.

I hope he does not get like Stephen King, and start writing books for the purpose of having them turned into movies.

Look at the bright side! That means there's 161 people who have to read that before you do.

Finished it last night. It's been a while since I read the Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons, but I think Angels and Demons was my favorite. That being said, I really enjoyed Langdon's adventure and can't wait to go back to DC!

do you think it would be the first time someone got the H1N1 (now referred to as the "hiney") from the liberry?

^^ Same boat as you. I think it was far more interesting reading that book as a Mason because I had experienced some of the things that occur in the book. I liked the book. It was a lot of fun and typical for what Dan Brown does.

It was ok.

I was a little disappointed at the ending, it was a little too predictable for me.

just started last night...i'm about 60 pages in. shaping up to be good so far. also looking like it could be along the same lines as angels and demons and da vinci code...which is fine by me as i really enjoyed both of those books.

i finished about 3 or 4 days after i started. it was good...i liked it a lot. definitely similar to a&d and da vinci code...but it was a fun read. i'd definitely recommend to a friend.

Dan Brown is an awful writer. I would rather spoon my brains out than read his shit.

The last 60 pages of preaching could have been cut, would have made it much better book.

The scene/chase in the darkness was great writing, imo.
