How to learn english!
It is a wonderful book, but only if you are learning english!
The intriguing story helps going on reading, but I would have never red this book in my mother tongue, but I would strongly suggest it as a pleasant reading on the beach, on the bus, waiting for the train that will take you on holidays a ...

This is a very good book for those who want to improve the english vocabulary of bad words. It's plenty of "SH*T" and "F*CK" and those words. However, I have to admit that it's also a little bit entertaining. But I also have to say that it is highly dissappointing. In other words: if you are one of those who think that Da Vinci's Code is a piece of trash, this book is just not for you.
Oh, man! I just realized that now I am strongly influenced by that style I too much regret! I hope that a couple of weeks reading some good books will make me forget about this way of talking and writing.
About the book: it is about some sort of mystery that is never ever solved. There are about 500 pages of expectation, and then you get to an end that can be anything from extraterrestrial abduction to spiritual and living death world.
