so-soFirst book of 2026 and it was…fine I guess. Really should have been like 200 pages shorter. I found myself skimming a lot over the more science dense parts. Image of the view from our hotel room in Chula Vista, CA which is our new home for the next 60 days while my husband is here for work!! So looking for any must visit indie bookstores in San Diego!
so-soUgh. Not really worth the slog. I loved the idea of this book, but had t realized before now what a horrible writer Dan Brown is. The science was cool, though!
pick5 Stars • 6th Robert Langdon thriller: Robert Langdon joins girlfriend Katherine Solomon (from The Lost Symbol) in Prague for her lecture on human consciousness. Her research proves consciousness persists after death as scientific evidence for an afterlife. Katherine vanishes; Langdon races through Prague's landmarks, tunnels, and secrets, evading assassin and a shadowy organization.
Sitting in my living room, under a blanket, in a recliner, and listening to the audiobook. Hubby is watching football. I‘m feeling very comfy and cozy.

bailedDNF- I was still at the beginning when I stopped. I liked the idea of this, but the female lead was not very interesting and the male lead pretty much watched her grow up. It gave me ick vibes so I‘m getting it off my shelves.
Dan Brown is my guilty pleasure. On to something for fun.
Is there a story here? I'm on page 211 and this book doesn't seem to be going anywhere.
Jumping back in and getting better.
3rd one finished for my sister in law.
pickQualified recommendation. I liked the story, however it is very long. And it felt to me as if Dan Brown has a formula he follows when crafting a story. This character, check; this plot point, check; Langdon has trouble with the authorities, check; etc. So while the story was interesting, and the science was different, I felt as if I were reading the same story over again.
