the da vinci code

 

[Insanity]

Haha, good luck. I hate that book and I've become quite open towards the Victorian Era.

I have to read "Lost In Transmission" by Jonathan Harvey. It looks really good.

It was alright. Didn't actually finish though, skipped parts here and there. Basically I kinda know what happens but missed out on some of the stuff in the middle ... which basically defies the whole point of reading lol.

Borrowed the adaptation but it was sooooooooooooooo crap.
