Favorite Book Friday

This week's book is:

Summary: "An ingenious code hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci. A desperate race through the cathedrals and castles of Europe. An astonishing truth concealed for centuries . . . unveiled at last. While in Paris, Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon is awakened by a phone call in the dead of the night. The elderly curator of the Louvre has been murdered inside the museum, his body covered in baffling symbols. As Langdon and gifted French cryptologist Sophie Neveu sort through the bizarre riddles, they are stunned to discover a trail of clues hidden in the works of Leonardo da Vinci—clues visible for all to see and yet ingeniously disguised by the painter. Even more startling, the late curator was involved in the Priory of Sion—a secret society whose members included Sir Isaac Newton, Victor Hugo, and Da Vinci—and he guarded a breathtaking historical secret. Unless Langdon and Neveu can decipher the labyrinthine puzzle—while avoiding the faceless adversary who shadows their every move—the explosive, ancient truth will be lost forever"


Why its one of my favorites:  Its one of those book I just couldn't put down. There were historical facts, suspense, mystery, and action. I know this book gets a lot of criticism from religous people. But I'm a pretty strong christian and I still love this book. Yes it makes the churches look kind of bad, but, and this is a big BUT, its FICTION, its not real. And if you read it with that in mind its a really good book. Its also interesting to read because there are people who actually believe some of the things portrayed in the book. Overall its an amazing book and i think everyone should read it.
