Digital Fortress

man. i knew in advance i needed to suspend disbelief for this novel yet still i was unprepared for how ridiculous it got. i really enjoyed it (mostly because it is ridiculous and outdated and mostly incorrect and every character/plot line came full circle at the end (classic dan brown)) until the climax and ending where i had to roll my eyes at every new chapter. i mean come on. you’re telling me these are some of the most intelligent people in the country and they couldn’t solve that man’s riddle?? it was SO OBVIOUS. whatever. i’ll probably still read another dan brown book after this and roll my eyes some more.

A friend recommended this to me and oh man this was a fun read! It is definitely dated with the representation the characters have, one lady in all of the code breakers feels inaccurate since women have had a pretty good standing as code breakers since wwii.

Aside from that though it read like a movie and was pretty comical throughout. I would recommend this definitely for people who are interested in coding/ cyber related dramas.
