    same here. i read the book within a few days. i think i never read a book in such a short time.

    Wibble , you should really read 'angels and demons'. not only the story is great, dan brown also describes rome in a great way. in my opinion 'angels and demons' is better than 'the da vinci code'.

    i want a new dan brown book! anyone knows when a new book will be released? :D

    I'm reading the sequel to "Left Behind", the book is called "Tribulation Force". It's actually quite interesting.

    Thanks inge - I will definitely check it out some time :) I actually have the illustrated version of Angels and Demons sat in my room at the moment. I remember one of my friends saying that she wished she'd read the illustrated version of this book the first time round, (and also the Da Vinci Code), as she spent quite a bit of time afterwards researching on the internet and stuff to try and find out how much of Brown's books are based on facts. So hopefully the illustrated versions will clear some of that up for me when I start reading them :)

    As for when a new Dan Brown book will be coming out, I have no idea :p Though I'm sure he has a website somewhere that may tell you.

    I did hear he was working on the new book, but I've not heard when the release date is just yet. Sorry I can't be much more help on that one. :(

    I recommend Angels & Demons wibble, it's a great read. I originally read The Da Vinci Code first and then Angels & Demons, I don't think it really matters with the order in those two particular books, but if I could go back in time I would have preferred to have read Angels & Demons first. Anyway, I highly recommend both. :)

    Awww, I wanted to read that book! :( ...but Ive been kinda banned from the library for a while now. Deception Point is great book with a lot..a lot of twists. You'll be like What the hell just happpened?!? when you finish the book. ;)

    I just finished the book of The Memoirs of a Geisha. Fastastic book, it was very sad and emotional...no, I didnt cry. :p Couldnt put the book down at 5am in the morning... :rolleyes: Can't wait to see the movie soon!

    So now Ive started The Moonlit Cage which is fastastic! Im already 3/4 the way through the book. It tells of the plight of women being married into indian families and tribes, but this one girl refused to and stood up for herself- kinda... Great book so far. :D I think I'll re-read The Stand by Stephen King soonish. :p

    In my opinion, it was fairly good. Yep. But I've never read LB: TK, so I couldn't tell you. Sorry ^^;

    That's the same author who wrote Brokeback Mountain, isn't it? ^

    I'm really enjoying Sense and Sensibility so far. I wasn't sure if I would or not, as I remember reading Mansfield Park a couple of yesrs ago (also by Jane Austen), and found it hard-going at times. I only really pushed myself to finish it so I could find out whether it had the happy ending I was hoping for :lol:

    I just read A Million Little Pieces, and it's sequel, My Friend, Leonard. Both of which I LOVED. It doesn't bother me that James Frey "stretched the truth" or "lied", they're both still really great reads.
