I found Angels & Demons and The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown to be interesting even though a few of my peers didn't care for it
Also in the same vein - Holy Blood, Holy Grail by Michael Baigent, Richard Leigh and Henry Lincoln

I am currently reading this book that I started reading yesterday and almost read the whole thing. Granted, it's only 180+ pages, but it was so addicting to me. It's called "Go Ask Alice" the author is anoymous, but it's the diary of a teenager, an actual reall life diary, who's gets into drugs and it shows her deepest thoughts and secrets. It's really intense. And it's a good small book for a short read. I haven't finished it yet, but I highly recommend. It'd be good if they'd read it in school so that kids could get a better understanding of how severly drugs can mess your life up.

We actually did read this novel in the school I went to...It was awhile ago, but I remember it was a very good read. Very intense, indeed. Beth |

I'm not sure if I want to read Da Vinci code  , personally I think it's a bit rude that they write a book and do not give credit where credit was due, as it was based on all the findings of HB/HG. IMHO that is.  |
