Pros: Decent plot, some interesting characters... Cons: ... written with all the subtelty of a sledgehammer
I have to admit, I only really read The Da Vinci Code out of curiosity. After all, few books in the past century have created as much fuss as this one. Seen by some as a beacon of truth and others as a scandalous attack on Christendom ...
Pros: Interesting mystery. Main characters likable. Easy to read. Cons: Heavy-handed critique of Catholic Church. Some elements of the writing. Character development.
The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown is continuing its three-year reign atop the Best Sellers lists. A recent news article by the Associated Press* stated that The Da Vinci Code has sold over 40 million hardcover copies worldwide. And now the ...
Pros: Loads of suspense, plot twists, realistic characters, twists and turns. Cons: Be careful what you take as truth.
I’ll admit it. I may just be one of the last people on the planet to have read The Da Vinci Code. But with all of the hoopla (and controversy) surrounding the recent release of the film, I decided to finally read the novel before seeing the ...
Pros: Fun puzzles Cons: skimpy plot and characters
A Night in the Life Robert Langdon and Sophie Neveu, Harvard professor and cryptographer, are on the run in Neveu's native Paris. Langdon's suspected of the murder of the chief curator of the Louvre, who spent his dying minutes constructi ...
Pros: None except that it ends Cons: Dry, minimalist prose; uninvolving plot
Although I have been a voracious reader since I was a wee lad, there are certain genres in popular fiction that I avoid. For instance, it doesn't matter how desperate for reading material I might be, but you'll never catch me reading a Harlequin ...
Pros: Subject matter was very interesting Cons: Some ideas could be upsetting to some readers.
I first heard about The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown last year. I read the book flap eventually and did think that the book sounded interesting. I did want to read it, but I didn’t get it right away for some reason. I did pick up the ...
Pros: Short chapters, excellent performance, the perfect audio book for a commute... Cons: Chances are, you've already read "The Da Vinci Code."
I first picked up "The Da Vinci Code" in late 2004, got maybe ten pages in, realized it was a mystery, and put it down. I haven't read much in the way of thriller/mystery novels, and didn't want to start now. After reading "The Historian," and ...
Pros: Thought provoking, well written, good characters Cons: None
I’m never thrilled about writing the 50th or 60th review on anything. However, I just finished Dan Brown’s incredible “The Da Vinci Code” and I really want to add my two cents to all the other reviewers. Rather than the usual review, ...
Pros: A real page turner, keeps the brain engaged Cons: Some people who have strict religious beliefs may find this offensive.
I had heard quite a bit about this book, from media as well as first hand from people who had read it. It sounded intriguing and I was curious but I am kind of cheap when it comes to book buying. Luckily for me I found a copy of the Da Vinci code by ...
Pros: Exciting, fast moving, thought provoking Cons: Less than stellar character development
Dan Brown's latest effort, The Da Vinci Code, isn't a great book. All things considered, very few literary works merit such a distinction. Nonetheless, The Da Vinci Code is a highly readable volume based on a myriad of ancient and often ...
Pros: Mostly Harmless. Cons: So Long and Thanks For All The Fish.
In trying to review ‘The Da Vinci Code’, I find myself curiously in the same eye-rolling position as when I reviewed the first ‘Harry Potter’ book. More curious, I’m willing to give Potter a little more slack now. As ...
Pros: Makes me want to know more. Cons: Langdon and Sophie on the run parts are like any second rate thriller.
Two things made me actually read The Da Vinci Code, one a �€˜talking point�€™ series done by the BBC on its website. In view of the criticism by the Vatican of the book, BBC invited it�€™s readers to respond with what ...
Pros: Tightly written prose, great historical data; great story-line. Cons: None
I am not a religious man; truth be told I am an agnostic, a man of logic, reason, and a tad too many questions about the whole God thing for most religious folk to answer. Organized religion is not for me, there has been and continues to be far to ...
