I think the Da Vinci code is the only recent book I've read (because someone paid me 50$ to), I'm way behind on the new ish.

So, in your opinion, what is the greatest novel so far in the 21st century? I still have some free reading time before school starts and I'd like to give something recent a try.


Edit to clarify: I did NOT say that The Da Vinci code was the greatest 21st century novel, I just noted it was the only one I have read.

I think The Da Vinci Code is the only book I've read that was published in the 21st century.

Uh, that wasn't a poker book.

It kind of makes me feel bad that the Da Vinci code is one of the only two 21st century novels I've read. The fact that Angels and Demons is the other one makes me feel worse. I vote A & D just to be different. Someone recommend me a good non-Dan Brown novel.

Is "The Curious Incident about the Dog in the Nighttime" a novel? If so, that gets my vote. So good.

Edit- enough with the passed out chicks, keep those in crappy threads please
