Review

I loved this book. I really enjoyed the way they tied in tons of art history and Vatican history into the book. Also, lately I've been into mysteries, and this is definitely a good one. Angles and Demons is one of those books that keep you up late and you are constantly carrying around until you're finished. Dan Brown does a great job of weaving each character, description, and word into a massive twisted story of religion, art, history, love and so much more. I also really liked this book because it is never slow, and you wonder how this book could possibly hold so much action and excitement inside.
