I absolutely loved reading this book, and I'm now hoping to visit Spain some day to see some of these places in real life.

There’s a certain challenge with keeping thrillers fresh. Dan Brown has fallen into a predictable pattern — his character responds similarly to every situation, and the cast of characters and themselves are repetitive. I’m a bit bored by the female sidekick who doesn’t really have a roll. How about a male sidekick? How about Landon being the sidekick for once?
Origin attempts to offer an explanation on the creation and the future of the human species. It’s a great philosophical question, and I wish that the revelation had been more interesting. The puzzle, usually the most interesting part of a thriller, was absolutely predictable. Better luck next time?

Multiple characters are LatinX, including the main female character. The protagonist has an eidetic memory.burstsofrain's review against another edition

Another Robert Langdon book that mentions religious issues, something that I deeply appreciate, as an atheist myself, and as a person who holds a grunge, let's say, towards Christianity first, and organised religion second. Great plot twist at the end, although some parts of it were kind of predictable.
