Dan Brown

So now I'm reading The DaVinci Code (as you do). I am glad that I'm reading it; my family is going to see the movie together when it comes out while they're here. And I'm glad I'm catching on the international best selling phenomenon, but I still can't figure out why it's so popular. I mean, don't get me wrong. I like it. It's good. I think so far (I have about 150 pages left) I still like Angels and Demons better but that's because I'm already sensing a pattern between the books. I have an idea of who the main bad guy in charge is based on how the first novel turned out. If that turns out to be true... I'll be a tad disappointed. If I can pick up the formula after 20 pages of the second book...

But still. I do enjoy it. They're hard books to put down. And that's always a plus. But I still feel like I've read more engaging books. I don't know. I think it's like anything else that's wildly popular. You hear so much about its success, when you finally see/hear/experience it yourself, it lacks something.

All this sounds like I don't like it!! I do, I really do. :)
