Anyone read them? I'm thinking about picking up 'Angels and Demons'.

It sucks IMO. Also there is a good audio-book of it so you don't have to read it yourself.

Pretty simplistic writing style, straightforward plot, black and white characters etc. That's most of the reason they are popular I guess.

Shit compared to the Da Vinchi code I thought. Haven't read the newest though.

Read Davinci. Then never open a book from him again. He's on repeat.

Get the Maria Magdalena books by some Swedish author. He ripped off her books.

You guys are right, maybe I should read something nonfictional.

Any recommendations?

Why is Dan Brown so popular these days anyway?

I might spend my money on one of those 'god is not great' books. good idea?

I really enjoyed both Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons. His writing style kept me entertained the whole way through. Each chapter jumps to a different character so it never gets boring.

After these two I also read The Last Templay by Raymond Khoury, it is also enjoyable.
