I've only read two Dan Brown books - The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons - and I thought the stories were really good but the characters were boring. The characters were just devices for the story, which is funny because sometimes it's the other way around.

That said, I also enjoyed A&D considerably more than TDVC; is that an unpopular opinion? The latter seems to be talked about a lot more.

Angels and Demons is GREAT. I liked that book a lot more than DVC--it's much tighter IMO. I think Brown is a pedestrian writer (someone's always wincing or cringing) but he makes you want to visit these cities and cathedrals and artworks, he brings them to life. I visited Rome a year after reading A&D and never would've thought to see the St. Theresa in Ecstasy or the Fountain of the Four Rivers if I hadn't read it.

aaaa I would love to go to Rome! Sounds awesome!

And yeah, I agree with your overall assessments, though I'd have to read more of his books. And they are fun even if I think the MC is self-inserty and boring lmao. I like the places and the stories.
