Of Water and Spirit
Think the title is correct. It was about the initiation rites in an African tribe and the clash of culture with Western christianity. I read this soon after a novel-Jonanthan Strange-about magic in England and I had to keep reminding myself that this was based on real life experience. All in all it was a fascinating book which raised more questions than it answered, and that was part of its enjoyment. 8/10

The Da Vinci Code
I enjoyed this although it was not written in a great prose style. It was exciting and although it may be total drivel -it was a novel for goodness sake-it kept me hooked until the end. I wouldn't read another of his books but this one gets a 7/10
