What readers think of The Da Vinci Code, plus links to write your own review.

This book doesn't deserve all the praise it's getting.
It is a very exciting book, with a cliffhanger ending to every chapter and very short chapters.
I felt It was poorly written and a duplicate of every other book Dan Brown's ever written. For the accuracy of this book, I think that it plays well to tell readers that most of the findings in the book are fact. I don't believe they are. Remember, they also told us that the Blair Witch Project was a documentary. It makes it easier for the reader to be involved in the story if they believe it to be somewhat true.

I would not recommend this book.

This book was simply disappointing. It would make a nice Sunday afternoon movie, but that's it. It's just overloaded with clichés.
DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

Good am! I am a CHRISTian... I can't tolerate that deceiption that I read about this book... It promotes exceptional ATHEISM and Anti-CHRISTianity... But it really hit me when Jesus Christ is being accussed for not being Holy??? What a deceiving thing... if it is a fictional thing... Then why there were people commiting on burning the Holy Bible because of a book that was contradicting the truth... I want to meet Dan Brown... Please stop deceiving God's people... May your conscience make you feel guilty... I'm From a church from the Philippines... I wanna get the contact email add of Mr. Brown... I will soon contradict your literary... RsACastro... I'm Racquel Sarah A. Castro... God make me differently... but i know the truth... that He was the King of kings... Lord of lords... Redeemer of my soul... God bless you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Perfect thriller I have ever read. Lots of turns in each chapter.Sometimes it bored me with history

i did not like this book. After reading it, i still didn't know what the Da Vinci code was, i mean, COME ON!!!
quite personally, i dont like books that ramble on and on about nothing. i am 76 years old and i think i deserve better!!!

I think it's a bad book in almost every imaginable way, but a friend who agrees with my analysis forced another of Brown's books on me--Angels and Demons--and surprise (!), I found it far better written, even though it preceded (I believe) this one. So though I hate to encourage sales of novels by someone capable of writing as poorly as Brown does on some occasions, I would recommend Angels and Demons. Some of the flaws are there, but it's as if a far better editor got hold of it and gave it a thorough going over before it was launched.

When Mr. Brow isn't sure about his fact, which is far more often then not, he falls back on the key to fiction: imagination. he is praised for his dedication to detail, yet anyone who has been to paris knows that the hotel the protaginist resides in is a 30 second walk, not a 30 minuit drive form the Louve. while on the run a train tickit is purchased form gare de lyon while infact there are no trains for the destination, Lille, from that station. a trivial mistake on might say, however i belive that these two fallicies, or over-sites represent a general lack of simple research. i wont go so far as to deny that the story is interesting but i find the wrighting far from poetry and much closer to a Robert Ludlum thriller (no offence to Mr. ludlum).

this book was juvenile. the story and his hooks are cliche and obvious. his descriptions evoke memories of "An Apple", childish and without eloquence. the history seems to be a pure farce. why this book gets such good review, I could never say, but it depresses me to think that this is what is being read and then praised by america right now.
