The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown
2.0

It's definitely the weakest installment of the Robert Langdon series so far. While the religious subtext has always been there, this book felt a lot more preachy than the previous two. It felt like the flair of blending the historical facts with conspiracy was missing. There was also something about this taking place in the US capital that made it lose some of the mysticism from the European locations. Overall, it's not my favorite Dan Brown book - I can see why the movie producers left this one behind in the adaptation journey.
