The Da Vinci Code
by Dan Brown
Since I’ve read and loved Brown’s “Inferno”, I was really excited to read the Da Vinci Code to see if it makes up to my expectations. It did. In fact, it surpassed them. Brown had me at the first word and I simply couldn’t put the book down! Words cannot describe how incredibly written this book is and how enjoyable it was for me.
Reading the Da Vinci Code, I’ve learnt so many things. I couldn’t shut up about it for days. I was overwhelmed by all the conspiracies and facts and I was throwing it all in the faces of everyone who didn’t hide from me. This book enlightens us not only on the topic of art but also on Christianity. It’s delightfully researched. Brown is able to convey so much information without the book being boring and textbook-like. The pace doesn’t lag because of it. He brings up all the facts through dialogues or retrospective stories, and each and every new information brings the storyline further. The delivery of those facts, although sometimes really detailed (which, in my humble opinion, is a positive thing), is still simple enough for everyone to read and understand.
Brown is a master of keeping you on the edge of your seat the whole time. Every time you think you know, he assures you that you, in fact, do not know at all. Every time you think you’ll finally find out the information you’re longing to find out, Brown cuts the chapter and you just have to read another, and another. And it’s amazing.
And Robert Langdon? Robert Langdon is a brilliant character. Brown’s writing is so good that Langdon feels as real a character as if he were an actual living, breathing person. He’s funny. He’s pretty smart. He’s flawed. He’s afraid of things (like come on, he’s claustrophobic). He owns a Mickey Mouse watch. I mean, how could you not love that man?
This book is simply one of the best things that I’ve happened to read so far.
