I've never actually read a Dan Brown book or watched the Da Vinci Code. I've got some vague idea that he writes about historical conspiracy kinda stuff (which sounds about right looking at this article). Are his books any good, or are they overrated?
I have only attempted to read one, The Davinci Code. So I can’t speak for all his books.
I made it about 300 pages into the books before I literally got out of my reading chair, walked outside to my outside trash can and tore the book apart and threw it in the trash.
The book was a steaming pile of dogshit.
Lmao, in which case I shall avoid him! I've got plenty of other (well regarded) books to read instead :')
