I gave up reading The DaVinci Code. I tried to finish it before we saw the movie on opening night, but it didn’t happen and now it’s just not captivating to me. I got as far as the scene in the crotchety British guy’s mansion where he says it’s really Mary Magdalene sitting next to Jesus and not John.
Yawn.
Some people have said that, all inaccuracies aside, The DaVinci code is at least a gripping, fast paced, page turner. Not so much, in my opinion. I just couldn’t muster up the interest to finish it.
So I’ve moved on to one of my book club selections, About Grace, by Anthony Doerr. In fact, I’M HOSTING this book club on June 19th, so if you live in the area and want to drop by… please do! If the weather holds up we’ll sit out by the fire pit and roast marshmallows!
