The Da Vinci Code

I have to give Dan Brown credit – he wrote a quick read.

That's all I will give him credit for.

The foreshadowing in this book is clunky at best; Dan Brown seems to think himself clever and it shows in his writing. I could feel the “nudge nudge, wink wink!” feeling every time something came up that was clearly meant to hint at things to come.

This book also has the uncanny ability to make certain types of people forget that it's fiction – Dan Brown is a wordsmith, for sure, because how else would he so easily be able to convince such a large amount of people that the tale he has haphazardly woven is fact?

Not only did I come out of this book underwhelmed; I actually felt a bit dirty after finishing it. Dan Brown's like a sleazy car salesman of modern popular fiction.
