Dan Brown will make you dumber if you believe what he’s trying to sell as fact when it comes to art, architecture, history, religion, and science. Sometimes he takes a fact and bends it to his narrative and sometimes he straight up lies. That’s fine in fiction but he claims at the beginning of most books that everything is rooted in fact. Other than that though his books are like a summer blockbuster. Popcorn thrillers that are easy to digest where every chapter is a minor cliffhanger.
