The Lost Symbol

Rating:	★★★★
Category:	Books
Genre:	Literature & Fiction
Author:	Dan Brown

I have been doing a bookathan the past weeks and finally, finally! I've got my Dan Brown book! (in paperback, though I want the special illustrated book)

4 stars
Why?
Because I liked the thrill in the book (as always). He described every thing well and made me imagine it vividly(even though, I've never been in the US) it felt real. I really got shocked in the revelation or should I say revelations. I don't want to be a spoiler but honestly, I never expected it coming (you know the big revelation and I mean big). I'm the type of reader who guess a lot and likes to figure out the story and analyze the events, in this case I didn't expect the twist though I know that there will be a twist but Dan Brown left no clue (which makes him great) I even paused for a while before reading it again. I'm in a total shock. This will make a good movie if given the proper treatment.

I got amazed about the facts in the book. For sure there will be critics who will give this book a poor rating. I'm sure the Church will have their opinions about the book (again! like what they did with Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons). It can corrupt your mind especially if you let it.

Towards the end, I felt there's more into it and its not yet the end.

note: the remaining star is all because of my sleepy state that I wasn't able to digest everything in the end so, I have to re-read it.

But definitely, this book is very good. I still have my notes (in decoding the mysterious code--hehehe)
