The Lost Symbol

I finished this novel today. It took me quite a while to actually read it because it seemed that it went on a little long. The book was based on uncovering Masonic secrets and highlighted the intelligence and code-breaking skills of Robert Langdon, who was previously seen in Angels and Demons and The Davinci Code. I really do like these books. I like to feel like I am solving a puzzle and am part of the adventure. The books seem to be slowing down, though. The action is not as dramatic as it was before and at a certain point, I am able to put down the book. To prove this point, I started reading this book the day it was released and stopped shortly thereafter, only to pick it back up this week.

Do I recommend this book? Maybe. It isn't a horrible read, but it is a long slow ride.
