I haven't been knitting much the past several days. I've been reading instead. I'm one of those people that can't seem to read a book "now and then" or "for a few minutes" until it's finished. Just like my marathon sewing projects, once I start on a book I do almost nothing else until the last page is turned. Luckily for my long suffering family I don't read novels all that often!
This one was an interesting read. Even though it's a fiction novel there is a lot of food for thought in the historical facts throughout the book. MUCH better and more in depth and understandable than the movie. I highly recommend "The DaVinci Code" by Dan Brown, if you haven't read it already.
ah-ha! Never thought of it that way...because I read the book 1st then the movie. Some of the images I had in my mind were 'right on' in the movie. I thought that was neat
ReplyDeleteThere's just too much info for them to fit it all into the movie. It's kind of like Pride and Prejudice. I read the book, then recently rented the new movie and there were so many things cut out because there's so much in the books.
ReplyDeletei actually bought the illustrated version, so i didn't have to go hunting looking for the classics mentioned in the book. i loved the book, but have heard so so reviews for the movie, soi'm kinda 6 of one & half a dozen of the other.
ReplyDeletegood book, eh?
