The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown

Completion time: November 1st to November 9th.

I somewhat had high hopes on this book until a friend commented on how he hated this book on Facebook. He said that this book lacked twists like other books by Brown. I tried as hard as I could to read this book without his influence, and actually enjoyed the book... up until the ending.

He was right, this book did lack the "OMG" element at the end.

The worst part is when they reveal what the actual "lost symbol" is. They build it up so much, saying how it would destroy the world and what not... and guess what the lost symbol actually is?

.....

Seriously take a guess....

... if you don't mind me spoiling the ending for you....

... here it goes...

.... almost there....

dary!!! oh wait, I didn't mean lengendary bahahahha...

K enough of the annoying bullshit. The lost symbol is the bible. THE BIBLE. Thanks so much for building it up and then completely destroying my hopes for something amazingly evil as the lost symbol.

Anyway, another friend of mine hates Dan Brown. He thinks that all of his characters well... actually has no character. They're basically walking encyclopaydias. But to be honest, I read his books for the thrill and suspense of a tv show or movie, not for their characters. and frankly speaking, although the ending of this book sucked, it managed to keep me reading once I got into it..
