    It took about 100 pages to finally kind of figure out what the hell was going on. I still have a long way to go but it's not bad.

    This is one of my favorite books of all time. I've probably read it 7 times in my life.

    Maybe I'm just in an interesting point right now. It was a struggle to get as far as I have. I just hate giving up on a book.

    I guess I'm pretty behind the times.

    I'm finally getting around to reading The Da Vinci code.

    I don't get to read as much as I used to. Dan really semed to rattle the cages of many religious folks. With all of the backlash from a work of FICTION, it seemed to me that maybe I should see what it's all about.

    I should be done with it before it hits DVD.

    It's a fun ride so far....

    Here's another one that I'm caught up in.

    **yeah, I know it's not really reading material, but for those sudoku addicts out there, I really suggest you pick this up. even the easiest section in the book, "Daunting", makes the paper's most difficult seem like childs play.

    Figured I was about the only person that hadn't read it, so I picked up Angels & Demons & then Da Vinci the last couple of weeks. Liked the first one better.
