The Da Vinci Code Dan Brown "I wanted to read the Da Vinci Code, because a lot of my friends were readers of it or have read the book and talked about how great the book was. I think the book is really popular, because it is based off of some factual information, the Louvre, the Vatican. They thought of hidden treasures like Raiders of the Lost Ark themes, and people wanna believe that there are, you know, secret treasures somewhere. Because of the popularity of the book, I would recommend the Da Vinci Code to people that are thrill seekers, people that like to try and solve a problem and have it related to real-world information. What I liked about the book is it was - made you think. You tried to solve the puzzle for the main characters. What I didn't like about the book is that you were able to actually solve the problem before the end of the book, or at least in my opinion, I was able to figure out where the treasure was hidden. The book and the movie are actually probably the closest portrayals together, so if you like the movie, you probably would really like the book. I would give the Da Vinci Code three stars out of five, only because of the predictability near the end of the story. It was more of an Americanized happy ending and being able to solve everything, and other than that, I think it was a very well-written book."
