The Da Vinci Code


Just in case you have been living on another planet for the past 2 years… A movie based on Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code will be released in theaters on May 19th. I for one will definitely be in line that day to check it out.

I’m not going to do a review on this book because the book has been on the NY Times Bestseller List for over 160 weeks and I’m sure you’ll be going to see the movie soon if you haven't already read the book.

Now, I do feel that I need to give my 2 cents about some of the controversy that has been surrounding this book. Some people have said that this novel is anti-Christian. That’s a bunch of crap. People have totally lost sight of the fact that this is a work of fiction. Artwork, landmarks and documents in the novel all exist but this book is fiction. The Da Vinci Code does, however act as a catalyst for people to explore their faith or find out how strong it is (which I personally think is a good thing).

For those of you who haven’t read it yet… Either you’ve been under a rock, lost your library card, or have been waiting for it to come out in paperback. Well, get to it! J This is a SERIOUS page turner and it’s so easy to read. Short chapters and you just want to keep going to find out what’s going to happen. This is a great book and I’m sure it’ll be a great movie!!!
