    Chris Evans autobiography. I expected it to be a bit more intelligent but doesn’t read that way. More like a read for some teenagers and I’m surprised. Estimated him too highly.

    Read Da Vinci Code for first time last month.
    Wow I thoroughly enjoyed that, he certainly put a ton of thought into all of that.

    Only criticism was how often the characters would have a “lightbulb” moment at the exact right time, it got old.

    It must be said though, he raises a point about Mary Magdelene being in the painting, how can anyone think that figure to Jesus left is a male??

    Finished Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Forest House. I had never read anything by her before and as I like historical fiction she has been someone I have been meaning to read. This book though set in first century CE Roman occupied Briton but was pretty average fare.

    Fascinating * to listen to, mental that such an insignificant little man could exert so much influence.

    Finished Marion Zimmer Bradley's The Lady of Avalon which is another historical fiction novel from her Arthurian series and carries on from where The Forest House left off. Definitely an improvement on the previous book but still not much better then slightly above average for me. The way the book is put together it is almost like 3 mini books in one that lead into one another.
