Every time the action picked up in this book, I had a serious adrenaline rush. My heart raced, my eyes frantically read line after line, and my hands automatically went to my mouth. I was totally engrossed in the story Dan Brown told, even though I had already seen the movie. Watching the movie before the book is very uncharacteristic of me, but I'm glad that it happened that way in this case. Reading the book cleared up a lot of unanswered questions for me, and the book was different enough from the movie to keep me gasping out loud at plot twists. For me, I was hooked along for the ride, and even though some might find his twists unbelievable or even predictable, I was just in it for the story and found myself completely absorbed. I appreciated the facts (or "facts") throughout the story that were presented to the reader about the Illuminati, Vatican City, etc. and I loved the feeling of being on the inside of solving a puzzle while racing against time. I appreciated Robert Langdon's character, and I'm so glad they cast Tom Hanks to play his character because even when I read The DaVinci Code years ago, Tom Hanks is always how I pictured Robert Langdon. Pretty damn intelligent, resourceful, and witty. Dan Brown can be pretty witty, too, and I found myself chuckling from time to time. I even enjoyed the general mechanics of this book--I liked the short chapters that kept me coming back for more. They made it easy to fly through the pages. I would look down maybe after a half hour or so into reading and be 150 pages further in the book. The "dun-dun-dunnn" moments at the end of pretty much each chapter had me flipping, too, even though I could understand how some might find that worthy of an eye-roll or two. My favorite part of the book, besides the adrenaline rushes, was how he bounced from one point of view to another without leaving the reader feeling disoriented. Rather, it had the opposite effect for me, clarifying everything by being able to watch the story unfold from all angles.

I read the Dan Brown novels backwards instead of this one frist I decided on reading The Da Vinci Code first. The ending of this book really shocked me well I did have a few hints but always brushed it to the side. This book is a thrill ride for the reader with the different symbols and all the politics within the vatican. I enjoyed this book but I still feel that The Da Vinci Code is my favorite of the ones I have read so far.

Found some of the science stuff a little hard to swallow. The ending went on for forever and a day, but not bad, as books go.

I was looking for a fictional book which involved physics and my English teacher suggested it. I would have to say that it did not disappoint and I recommend everyone to read it at least once.

Once again Dan Brown does not disappoint! Like I wrote for The Da Vinci Code this story is great for those who enjoy conspiracy theories, as well as books with the thriller or mystery genre. It is also captivating, suspenseful and brilliant once again! I would have to say that I enjoyed reading this one more than The Da Vinci Code. There’s more action, more problems to solve and you’ll love it, trust me.

and you think to yourself "I could never read a book like this," you're wrong. You'll love it. Trust me.

Words cannot describe how I felt about this book by the time I finished reading.

Wow, this was really really really great read! I could not put it down! Some of the parts were amazingly written, really wanted me to explore rome and find out more about the city and the art, I actually found myself on google trying to get a image on some of the churches that were described in the book. Honestly you must read this book! I cant wait till Dan Brown comes out with the lost symbol, his style of writing is amazing!!
