A review by ebraam
Origin by Dan Brown
4.0
Of coarse Dan Brown is highly predictable and follows the same formula every time - but this was also really entertaining. I love that Brown always dives into history and that anything he talks about you can look up and see that it's a real building/ organization/ movement: I genuinely learn a lot while reading these books.
I also like that Brown always touches on important and current world topics... Origin deals with science vs. religion and their ever changing relationship. To be honest, I felt the element of mystery in this book took more of a back seat then in previous books (and maybe that's because I know Robert Langdon and his beautiful accomplice will ultimately solve the case and come out unscathed) but still an enticing read.
