If you can hang in there for the first 100 pages, it’s a WILD RIDE!!!
Yeah it starts a bit slow but things speed up as you go along.
Well like most books it was better than the movie. It was a slow start but I’ve found most of his books are like that.
I couldn’t …… the movie was fun but the writing was not for me
well, I hope you haven’t read any other Dan Brown book, cuz they pretty much follow the same pattern. But if it’s your first one, then go for it. Personally I love his work
I have watched the movie,well am not I want to read the book
I think you’ve heard this before but I’ll say it just for the sake of saying that the movie was dumb. Couldn’t bear it till the end either. The book was so good I couldn’t put it down
Haha,are u convincing me to read it,okay I will try to,
Good girl ???
thanks, I hope it won’t make me bored lol
If you are a fan of ancient art and all the mythological thing then you will love it.
Okay,thanks
Its good trying out new things haha
Totally. ???
You may tell me some of your favorite book. I’m all ears. ?
Okay I have many favourite, my favourite so far is a book titled the client,well I have forgotten the author its a bit long since I read it ,but dat book has my heart, till today because of the major character mark sway,that boy is the bravest 9 year old I have ever seen,I couldn’t help but shed tears for him, even if he is not real,well haha,I really love dat book,
That’s awesome. I’ll try it ??
Yep…I really liked it.
I did however feel the writing was a bit…bland. But despite this I really enjoyed it.
Not sure I mean to say
It’s great but it’s the weakest of the entire Robert Langdon series by Dan Brown. All the others in the series blow Da Vinci Code out of the water. ??
Dan Brown is amazing and it’s a wonderful book. Did you manage to get ahold of the one with the matching photos? It really enhanced the book for me.
Unfortunately no
It’s still amazing without that version, that’s how I read it first. But if you can get your hands on the copy with photos, definitely do that.
I found it to be a great read. I highly recommend it. I believe it to be his best book.
Hey I just bought it too. Wanna be friends and read it together????
Of course
Awesome!
The book was better than the movie adaptation, me think.
I loved this book! I don’t know why it got such bad press. The movie was such utter rubbish… I can’t even…
I have been so far behind with movies my whole life. It’s one of the many perks of being a bookworm
@Brandy I love them both… but books win every time. I don’t even know why I try to see the movies of books I love though… it is usually heart breaking/ infuriating. 😛
Hahaha! I try to watch tv, and I’ve seen some things. But I haven’t see the movie for this book yet that’s why I’m so excited to read it lol!
I enjoyed reading the book!
It was okay. Was kinda disappointed by the ending.
Yes I enjoyed it
I enjoyed it
I enjoyed it.
Awesome!
Couldn’t put it down … one of his best books …
Its good, but I read it years ago when it came out and I had just graduated with a degree in, amongst others, religion. I was like no more! Lol Seriously though, it was a lot of subject matter I was familiar with woven into a pretty decent story.
People aren’t going to like what I have to say but just keep in mind that it is a work of fiction that there are historical inaccuracies in it a lot
Agreed
But you will also agree that it was fun to read all the inaccuracy
True
It’s excellent, unlike its successor, which is eh!
Amazing!
It was ok
I’ve read every book by Dan Brown and I think Da Vinci Code is he best among them all.
Read All of them. Enjoyed them.
Yuss! Its brilliant. I love secret ancient societies stuff!
I’ve been looking for a book which has the same kind if ancient societies. I’ve read all of Dan Brown books…any other recommendations
One I read called The Hailing Sign was brilliant! Don’t remember who it was by tho 🙁
I just Google it. It says that the rating of the book is 1/5 that’s really bad. ? Are you sure about the title?
It is very bloody. Maybe that’s why?
Do you have…hmm…pdf link or epub sometimes of that book?
No I’m sorry. I read it years ago. My copy is long gone. I’m glad its still around tho!
Well…however thanks for the recommendations
The way Opus Dei was portrayed in this book is super inaccurate, just sayin’
I just pretended it was a “splinter group” 😀
Because it was a fiction book. Why do people always say that about this book. ?????
Some people like things to be precise I think.
I hate it when people say that Dan Brown books are inaccurate. They are inaccurate because they are fiction. I don’t see anyone complaining that Harry potter is all crap and there is no such thing as magic or Phoenix.
There is a reason fiction is not non fiction.
Wait… THERE IS NO ORDER OF THE PHOENIX!???
Well…no sorry to bust you bubble but there is no such thing as order of the Phoenix. But yeah there is platform 9 3/4…I suggest you not to run into it ?
~makes Careful notes~
I really enjoyed it. Definitely a page turner.
Loved that whole series enough to buy them in hardback!
Yes! Read and enjoy!!
Yes
It’s an easy read which closes every thread in the end… If u like thinking about “what ifs” and theories once the book is over, Dan Brown is not the writer for you since he guides you through every step and makes everything too clear (u dnt have to think too much). Anyway it’s a good swimming pool read
I have this book and i loved it xx
Awesome read! Saw the movie after reading the book
Love it!
Great book !!
I read it a long time ago, but I couldn’t put it down. I had borrowed it from a relative and when I returned it three days later they couldn’t believe I had already read it all. Dan Brown is one of my favorite authors, Inferno is my favorite of his Robert Langdon novels but the Da Vinci Code is a very close second. Also The Lost Symbol is really good too
What did you think about Inferno the movie ? I was so disappointed … I reamly liked the Da Vinci Code movie, I thought they worked well on it but Inferno really let me down.
Yes I agree Bertrand was SO much better in my head, but the movie did feel incomplete and rushed, a lot wasn’t explained nearly as well as I think it should have been. I really The DaVinci Code movie though
I so agree with you !
I agree! They didn’t explain important details…
I read it and liked it at lot !
Loved it! Loved the movie, too.
Loved it!
Excellent book ? worthy of a re-read
Educative. Spell binding. Exciting.
Great book – loved “Angels and Demons ” as well !!
Yes. Love it. Especially great if you’re a history, art, language or architecture fan.
Yes and Angels & Demons
Hated it.
I enjoyed all Dan Brown’s books
Yeah.I’ve read it
I read it a LNG time ago and what I remember eel ing was how anti Catholic it was
Oops iPad acting out – what it should have said was I read it a long time ago and remember feeling how and Catholic it was
Put it this way…after I read it, I bought every other book he had written.
Thoroughly enjoyed the book
yes read them all and enjoyed them
AMAZING! But… read Angles and Demons first… it prequels Davinci code.
I read it years ago and really liked it.
Soooooo much better than the movie, in fact once you read the book the movie will piss you off.
If you are a religious,pious sort of person….,read it from a fictional point of view…
If u love thrillers, u have the best in ur hands…it’s brainy too….
I really enjoyed it.
I really enjoyed it
I liked it. Saw the movie first. Both are good.
I like DaVinci code, but like I liked Angels and Demons better.
I have the book angels and demons but haven’t started reading it yet..
It’s been a while and I’ve not read inferno yet, but so far Angels is my favorite.
Angels…..has been sitting on my bookkshelf for quite a while, i think i should start opening it soon.
I liked as well.
I remember the controversy when it was published. A young friend read it (15) and she looked into many of the topics covered. Not so much the conspiracy and that.
Loved! Angels and Demons is the best… its his first Robert Langdon book
Not typically my kind of book, but I liked it.
really enjoyed it
❤❤❤❤
I really enjoyed it. The book is better than the movie.
Watching a movie based on book u’ve read is disappointing
Book crime buddy!!!!
Have actually read it three times.
It was a great read. Angels and Demons was better, but I read both at least once a year ?
My first book of Dan Brown, then after I read it, I fell in-love with his work and bought all of his pieces… and there they are, waiting for their soon to be brother “The Origin” in October.. ^_^
Awesome!
THEE BEST BOOK EVER!! LOVED IT. COULDN’T PUT IT DOWN
Read “Angels and Demons” after. Great one too!
It’s reAl thrilling… Do read it!!
It helps if you don’t know too much about early Christian history and have NOT read Holy Blood, Holy Grail. It’s a roller coaster ride and I really enjoyed (despite not fitting into the categories above), but it doesn’t stand up to thinking about afterward or, I found, a second read.
I loved it!! I loved the subsequent books as well!
Its fiction..
Yes and all of the books in the series are good.. There’s angels n demons and inferno
I read it many years ago … bought a highly expensive edition that had colour photos of a lot of the locations in it. 🙂 I remember it being pretty good, but don’t worry about spoilers … I don’t remember enough about it to even offer any!
Loved it. It’s the only book I’ve ever read all the way through without stopping
Keep in mind that it’s strictly fictional – don’t start taking the conspiracy theories to heart. Otherwise, it’s a very fast paced mystery thriller that I stayed up way too late reading because I couldn’t put it down.
Me too! I read it on my breaks and lunch, even carried it in the car with me in case I caught a train!
Yea me too I completed that book in a night all his books are like that!!!
Good one
İ read the code of hammurabi
I liked his books, it got me more interested in art history, mainly back-checking to see if some of the stuff was true, and to see the actual art that was written of in the books.
Once I read The Davinci Code, I followed it up with Angels and Demons, The Lost Symbol and The Inferno. They kinda follow each other.
I too read in the same order….but i also read the deception point and digital fortress before inferno!!!
I think Angels and Demons was before The Davinci Code
Yes it is… But I read Da Vinci code last year…. By that time…all the other books were already out and I read them all!?
Ciera thanks for posting this, I have a copy here at home but haven’t read it yet,to be honest I have been afraid to.
Sazan I don’t want to spoil anything for anyone but isn’t it anti Christianity
No, not antichristianity, it’s just another way of interpretation from the one everyone knows…
Hmm saw the movie
..
Interesting read and made you want to find out more about the historical aspects
yep
Definitely a fun and interesting (and quick) read – made me want to know more about some of the things raised – what the actual truth is behind some of the things he raises in the book. But I also thought it was very much based on the ideas of the nonfiction book “The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail” which was truly fascinating.
No but I’ve always wanted to
Do it!!
I will eventually get around to it, I have to find a copy of it first
It’s a fun and easy read
It’s good!
It’s..an interesting read. I personally do not like Robert Langdon, his MC, coz I find him too bland. And if you don’t mind some of his ermm..funny sentences and analogies, the concept and the conspiracy stuff is quite interesting.
Yes. I think it was great and made a lot of people think.Very good read.
One of the best book I’ve ever read!!!! This book is the reason I’ve read almost all of books written by Dan Brown! It’s amazing totally worth reading
Same here. The movie was redeemed only by Tom Hanks.
Didn’t care for it at all.
It was just O.K. Very predictable.
I enjoyed it.
I really liked the book
One of my favorites.
Great read!!
Garbage. Poorly written with ideas cribbed from other sources yet repackaged and sold millions inexplicably. ?
Totally agree with “poorly written”, sadly.. Word usage..sentence construction..so weird. Lol.
Yes. Liked both of them.
Excellent book,couldnt put it down.
No not yet. I have the book somewhere.
Try books by James Rollins.
Great fast paced mystery, thriller. You don’t need to be a Catholic or art history buff to enjoy.
Excellent book…. read it boss… you will surely love it..
Keep an open mind and read it anyway.
