Bridget: 7/26: Deception Point by Dan Brown

This was the other book I was reading as I was reading my "children's books" :).
Summary: 558pp. Definitely a book to recommend for those who have never read "DaVinci Code" or "Angels and Demons" (because they were better books). Still an easy to read thriller because of Brown's quick paced action and non-complex characters. Also a good book to recommend for those who like Tom Clancy-like books (likes books with detailed information on how the government works) but doesn't like ALL of the detail Clancy gives.
This was a typical Dan Brown book where you have characters who are amazingly smart and are amazingly resilient when it comes to life and death situations. We learn a bit about NASA, the NRO, and the diabolical mind of a politician. There are the lovable protagonists and the slimy antagonists. This book is just screaming to be made into a movie starring Harrison Ford or Matt Damon!
Great airplane and layover reading. Recommended.

Holy crap, this girl is a steamroller, and we merely...nothing. Might have been something before, maybe even something cute and furry. But now, we're just part of the asphalt. With not even a little tuft of fur sticking out.
(Aarg, guess you can't put images in comments? Hafta ask Alex about that, too...)

Yes, that's what happened to Ricardo Montalban at the end of the Naked Gun. (reminder: steamroller).
