Basically, it’s like this: the moment you start reading it, you won’t put it down for more than a second. The plot is rather formulaic, if you want the honest truth: a scholar, a pretty girl, a cult/evil agency, and a traitor. Every chapter ends with an irritating cliffhanger. The info about the Holy Grail is truly fascinating, although one must always remember that the book is fictional and that the scholarship is somewhat questionable.
And yet, it’s one of my favorite books. I like the professor a lot and I think art/religion/iconography are fascinating.

I’m almost done with The Da Vinci Code, so maybe this review shouldn’t count, but what the heck ! (:
I really like it, I only have about 50 pages left and I can’t help reading for hours! Although, some parts of it bother me, like how it somewhat defies the Bible, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you have to believe in..yeah I don’t wanna give away everything if you haven’t read it..Overall I think its a great read and worth your time. (:
btw- I’m 15..if that has any influence on anything
