The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown

Good Story! The Lost Symbol would be great if Dan Brown would/could learn character development and a few other things. I hate, I mean I REALLY HATE, to say anything negative about his writing because he can tell a story. This is typical Dan Brown where we expect the unexpected and we know that he's going to outsmart the reader (at least me) so I love his books.

I read this while on my cruise and it was very satisfying. What is better than sitting by the pool (wearing tons of sunscreen) in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico drinking a Virgin Pina Colada reading Dan Brown? It seriously doesn't get any better than that.

I was astounded when he killed off his main character. Did he really do that? So I had to peek at the last chapter. I know I know. I read pretty fast so you would think I could wait a few hours, but no (sigh) I had to peek. Back when I was into Patricia Cornwell, I got to where I would tape the last chapter shut before I started reading, because I knew that I would be tempted to peek. I'm definitely going to have to start doing that with Dan Brown.
