A well-known curator at the Louvre museum is found murdered. Before he died, he left a cryptic message. The story follows Robert Langdon, an American symbologist, and Sophie Neveu, the curator’s granddaughter, as they try to decipher this message. They race around France and England trying to find answers, and it all has something to do with Leonardo Da Vinci and the Priory of Sion.

I loved this book! I finished reading it in a very short time because I didn’t want to put it down. It was fun trying to figure out the puzzles along the way. I had no idea who “The Teacher” was until the very end, I thought all signs were pointing to someone else instead.

The only thing I found annoying about this book at first was that the chapters were very short, and itjumps from one character’s point of view to another. Several times throughout the book I was tempted to skip a few chapters because it started talking about some character I wasn’t interested in.

There are plans to make The Da Vinci Code into a movie. I wonder who would be a good actor to play Robert Langdon? I first thought George Clooney, because I haven’t seen him in a movie for a while, but David Duchovny could do it.

One last note - somewhere in the book, there was a list of famous people, and one person on that list was a Nicolas Flamel. The last time I saw that name was in the book Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone! I was so surprised to learn that he was a real person.
