The Confessions of Max Tivoli

by Andrew Sean Greer

The Da Vinci Code

by Dan Brown
- Rated 1 stars
“His writing style is remedial and an insult to anyone who's reading level is above that of a fifth grader's. The controversies he discusses in this book have already been published in other works...other, much more well-written works at that.”
