I finished The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. A cool and fascinating book isn't it? Just can't stop reading. I'm now reading the book he wrote before The Da Vinci Code (Het Bernini Mystery aka Angels & Demons, I believe). It's about anti-matter and the Vatican City and it's with Robert Langdon as well.

I normally keep a book or 5 going at the same time. I have my night time book by the bed and the others are just scattered around the house near places i like to sit and read at. The bed book of the moment is Tai Pan by James Clavell, some of the other books are The R. Crumb handbook by Crumb and Peter Poplaski, Amphigorey Also by Edward Gorey, Choke by Chuck Palahniuk and The Great Shark Hunt by Hunter S Thompson.
Some people snoop in a person medicine cabinet to see what they really are, I check out the book collection. My favorite find is a collection of "HEAVY" philosophy or Theology books laid out so that all people that come over know that the person is into DEEP stuff, but upon closer investigation there is a coating of dust on all of them. Just a pet peeve of mine.
Ever me,

I'm now reading the book he wrote before The Da Vinci Code (Het Bernini Mystery aka Angels & Demons, I believe). It's about anti-matter and the Vatican City and it's with Robert Langdon as well. Sorry for so late reply I like Da Vinci Code very much. Would love to read it again but I don't have time There are so many details that you need to read it at least twice to remember some of them. I like also how the plot develops. In the begining it's kind of slow and there are so many facts that I got a litte confused 'cause nothing fits. But then things start to go together and the more you read it, the faster you want to finish it 'cause you are curious about the ending (I was at least). Great book I wonder about movie. The cast is pretty good tom Hanks and Audrey Tatou. But usually in screen adaptations they lose a lot of details, But we'll see. I would love to read "Angels and Demons". when the bookstore in my town was being closed they had sale and were selling books for really low prices, among others there were also this one. Unfortunately I missed that How did you like this book? My brother has also Dan Browns other book. I can't recall the title, something with tower I think I haven't read it but my brother says it's good too.
