Well, we have read another book by Brown "Angels and Demons" and we think it was not good. And most people who have read DVC comment that it is not original (referrals to Eco and "Holy Blood and Holy Grail") with some good, fast-paced passages, but not good nor fast-paced in general, that the ending is awful and that it has a very superficial vision on the historical topic.

I'd like to read Rebecca. I've been hearing a lot about it lately, besides having read most of the others. Don't know much about The Dice Man. Like... anything. So I'd be up for a surprise. Either of those two. Both. All? I get to go book shopping tomorrow! Wheeee!!

I'm reading Da vinci code right now. I liken it to cheese in a can, not very sophisticated but it's good on a ritz.

I think I'll vote for Dice Man, it's on my list to read, but then again I've nominated Rebecca several times for the monthly reading.....when does this poll close??

Not the Da Vinci Code. I read it right after I had surgery because it didn't take much concentration at all. I recommend reading it sometime though so you'll know what all the scoop is about. I vote Rebecca or LOTR

I'm thinking Rebecca has a lock, which works for me since I nominated it once before in the monthlies.

Being as though I still have yet to read the Chronicles of Narnia, I voted that. I know that I would enjoy them all.
