I read two Dan Brown books, but I wouldn't say I enjoyed them
I just wanted to see what the fuss was about. They were adequately paced thrillers but they were nothing special.

I read two of them as well.
They seemed to me to be neither as bad nor as good as people made them out to be. I mean, he's no Jeffrey Archer.

This is very true
with the exception of The Lost Symbol. I defy you to get even a quarter of the way through that before chucking the fucking thing out of a window.

Still, a lot further than my record, which is a page and a half of 50 Shades of Grey, before I flung it across the room.

I picked up the first one because I didn't realise it was going to be a novel.
I'd already read all the non-fiction works referenced in the book, so I was quite interested in the story.

Then I read the Angels and Demons one while the actual Papal elections were going on, and I found that aspect quite interesting.

I read the other two because I'm a completist. Still couldn't manage the newest one, though.

I downloaded it without Dan Browns permission (didn't steal it though)
but I havne't read it. I'm too bust ploughing through Jack Reacher. It's got to the stage where I'm reading them to completeness sake. I've kind of stopped enjoying them so much, though they are still relatively gripping.

It's no good now, but I wish I'd done it ten years ago
although that would mean no daugher so probably that's a bit fucked up

You mean you won't even go back in time to help him out?

I would
but my rudimentary grasp of time travel would suggest he'd still have no daughter if I did that.
