Did not finish book. Stopped at 52%.
Boring as shit! I’m half way through and nothing has happened. Not a typical adventurous Robert Langdon book that has me on the edge.

4.0

There was a mustache twirling villain, stock Brown characters, and a plot hole  you could drive a semi through I admit, but I don’t read Dan Brown mainly for characters or the plot. I read him for the adventure but even more for the history, architecture, and art. It takes me twice as long to read his books because I’m always googling the places and things in the book. In my mind reading Inferno, the streets of Florence came alive.
