The Lost Symbol, Dan Brown

Intriguing, but not as much as Da Vinci Code. Dan Brown hasn’t gone much into historical details a la Da Vinci Code or even Angels and Daemons for that matter. Tried to touch here and there but didn’t quite come out well. But never a less interesting book with typical Dan Brownish touché.

To Kill a Mocking Bird, Harper Lee

Book for teenagers to understand the way in which society works or worked. Hard realizations may be. Young girlish writing, quite natural considering the protagonist’s age. But I don’t think it can be considered as a classic.

The 3 Mistakes of My Life, Chetan Bhagat

Good for a bollywood flick. Lacks substance. A far cry from his earlier, 'meant-for-soft-reading', book 5 point someone.
