I'm reading it also. I just finished chapter 33. It's been quite a page turner so far. |

Ch 41 here. I like short chapters; some are only two pages. It makes me think I'm a great reader. Kinda like feeling informed because you "read the paper" (USA Today.)

I do think DB ripped off Baigent & Leigh's Tinfoil Hat piece, "Holy Blood, Holy Grail". |

i read both DC and A&D. i thought they were both predictable and repetative in his sentence structure, phrasing, and choice of words. i think they are good books if you want a quick and easy mystery kind of thing for which you don't have to think very hard. i'm currently reading Labyrinth by Kate Mosse. it's very similar in its theme to DC and A&D, but more tastefully done (slightly). |
| And how are you today? | |

Bingo I'm dumb. I'll read some books and my mind will just wander. They will mention a character they haven't mentioned in a while and I'll forget who it is. I guess I need to be spoon fed when I read.

LW, I wouldn't say that I think people who don't like to read are dumb...some people just don't like to read. I read every now and then if a friend says they read a good book. Reading is just another form of entertainment. |
