I finished reading Digital Fortress over the weekend. I think perhaps that Dan Brown should be read just once. All his books start out the same: with a gory murder. Then follows a 24-hour marathon of mystery, assassins, powerful enemies, a cross-country dash that's almost always in Europe and finally the uncovering of an insider. With The da Vinci Code, the story was quite believable and the plot interesting. With Angels and Demons, the plot seemed a bit contrived. Digital Fortress didn't appeal to me that much. Deception Point was the worst amongst all, I think. Anyways, I am through with the Dan Brown series.
Planning on reading Anna Karenina and War and Peace sometime soon.
Other than that, life's been too busy to experiment with anything new. My car hunting woes seem to be finally over. Hopefully, I am going to have sometime to myself in the coming week...

Hmm..I've always wanted to read War and peace. I guess I just have to make the time for it sometime! Karthik, when you buy a car, count on me to help you out!
i completed the Dan Brown series too...read them in the exact reverse order though- DVC, AnD, DP and then DF...u know what? I'd have loved all four had i read them in the order in which they were written! Guess Brown's writing skills are getting better...
