Book Log 2010 #14: The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown

During his tenure with the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green went a little crazy after blowing a lead and losing to the Chicago Bears, noting (among other things) that "they are who we thought they were." That's pretty much all you need to say about this book, as it's exactly what you thought it would be. Perhaps 10 percent less credulous than The DaVinci Code, but otherwise just the sort of conspiracy-lite mumbo jumbo with sides of unlikely plot twists, coincidental timing and random other crap that you get from Dan Brown. It will make a splendidly awful movie.
