I've read this at least twice on paperback. But, boy, is it a totally different experience reading it in this edition. It's, to say the least, beautiful. Slowly rifling through the glossy pages, smelling whiffs of that new-book essence, gazing at all the amazing architecture graphics - this is a real reading experience.
My little sister generously bought me a copy from the Times warehouse sale (it's over already, so don't rush anywhere). She won't let me know how much it cost her (so nice of her), but I think the market sells it for about RM100. And no, don't even think to ask to borrow it - it's the only book that won't leave my house. You're very welcomed to come browse through it at my house though, after you've washed your hands, of course :)
If anyone hasn't read it yet, go grab yourself a paperback - worth every single sen of RM34.90. Even without the pictures, the words are vivid enough for you to use your imagination. With the pictures there - indescribable.
So proud of my new book :) But I think the long nights of holding this heavy hardback has caused me to incur a minor wrist injury - honest. So working with a mouse and typing on a keyboard or writing something or even turning the steering wheel is done rather gently now, fragile right wrist you see. But still, this book is worth every single minute that eats into your bedtime.

i dun like the way dan brown writes - too 'shove in your face' kind.
well, he's touching on controversial stuff mah, he needs to "shove" it into your face to make it sound convincing, or else the fiction will be just fiction and then it won't be a bestseller lor.
but u're entitled to ur opinion :) i just like any kind of fiction.
