Me too. I liked the book but not the movie. I remember my friend in Israel told me once(about the movie): our best guys spend 3 years in Air Force to learn to fly F-16 and these apes who could not read learned it in a few weeks/months?
I also really liked The Da Vinci Code

1.
Any Russian classics (
Pushkin,
Lermontov,
Dostoevsky,
L.Tolstoy,
