Just finished reading the newest installment of the Robert Langdon saga. Dan Brown enjoys jerking the rug out from you too much. I am not sure if his books are more believable than those within the 39 Clues/Cahills v. Vespers canon.
Not exactly sure why I bother reading Brown's books since I find everything about them rather impossible to read.
I mean, Prof. Langdon is a "genius," but yet he manages to do very stupid, naive things, regularly. At least the Cahill kids are KIDS, thus too young to be truly cynical
Anyways, I guess I read them for the same reasons I read Block, for I find myself thinking the same thing... WHY ARE YOU SO STUPID! They're good to make you think... all you have to do is turn pages unlike a Sudoku puzzle that requires you to correctly place numbers within a grid.
Regardless, it's not a bad book in the grand scheme of things. I generally like stuff relating to Medieval times and this has tons. Not a big art history fan, but that's different matter for another day.
My brain hurts.
