Robert Langdon, Harvard professor of symbology, arrives at the ultramodern Guggenheim Museum Bilbao to attend the unveiling of a discovery that “will change the face of science forever.” The evening’s host is Edmond Kirsch, a forty-year-old billionaire and futurist, and one of Langdon’s first students. But the meticulously orchestrated evening suddenly erupts into chaos, and Kirsch’s precious discovery teeters on the brink of being lost forever.

Skip to Chapter 20
Revisado: 12-19-24
The book starts in chapter 20 and remains dull. Dan Brown is a great write but everybody writes a snoozer at some point.

Terrible
Revisado: 03-31-24
Rambling. Pubescent. All the characters have the same voice and the same actions. A few good descriptions but that’s it.

Great momentum and action sequences
Revisado: 03-26-24
Written as a thrilling fast paced ride. The person you think did it is always uncertain. It’s not a literary epic with a big vocabulary and juicy descriptions but it’s fun!

Fun references to the Odyssey
Revisado: 12-18-23
It’s fun to read and took me back to 6th grade when we read the Odyssey. The narrator wasn’t my favorite. He sounded like an AI robot. But was ok.

Historia
When she was suddenly given the opportunity of a new life in rural Jutland, journalist and archetypal Londoner Helen Russell discovered a startling statistic: the happiest place on earth isn't Disneyland but Denmark, a land often thought of by foreigners as consisting entirely of long, dark winters, cured herring, Lego and pastries. What is the secret to their success? Are happy Danes born or made?

Historia
Somewhere out beyond the edge of the universe there is a library that contains an infinite number of books, each one the story of another reality. One tells the story of your life as it is, along with another book for the other life you could have lived if you had made a different choice at any point in your life. While we all wonder how our lives might have been, what if you had the chance to go to the library and see for yourself? Would any of these other lives truly be better? In The Midnight Library, Nora Seed finds herself faced with this decision.

If you didn’t feel depressed before you will be after reading this. Terribly lethargic even things that should be fun are depressing.

Historia
Being successful in college or university involves more than just "being smart" or even "doing the work." It's more than just a few classes - it's a lifestyle. You will need to work, eat, sleep, and socialize well in order to study well; and you'll have to study well in order to learn and do well in your courses.

Droll, boring painfully obvious
Revisado: 05-12-23
Nothing to read here. Painful to listen to a snarky reader go on with obvious and pointless advice.

Should never have made it to print. It’s miserable to read. Tediously boring.

It’s fun
Revisado: 04-09-23
The writing isn’t complex enough to be adult fiction and too graphic to be young adult fiction. Would make a fun monster movie.

Historia
Nicholas Flamel is the greatest Alchemyst to ever live. The records show that he died in 1418, but what if he's actually been making the elixir of life for centuries? The secrets to eternal life are hidden within the book he protects - the Book of Abraham the Mage. It's the most powerful book that has ever existed, and in the wrong hands, it will destroy the world. And that's exactly what Dr. John Dee plans to do when he steals it. There is one hope. If the prophecy is true, Sophie and Josh Newman have the power to save everyone. Now they just have to learn to use it.

Not Harry Potter
Revisado: 03-06-23
Was suggested as “like Harry Potter”. Well it contains magic and it ends there. No deep friendships or the struggles of shame and dependency. Limited vocabulary. Doesn’t ask any universal questions.
