At 11:15 pm today, Saturday, I finished my date with 'The Da Vinci Code' which I had started at 12 midnight on Thursday - between Thursday and Friday. It was a continous rendezvous with the exceptions of deliberate breaks for prayers, meals, sleep, trips to nearby stores, trips to bathroom and a visit to my gransparents' residence. It was deviod of any disturbances through the telephone, the internet and any personal contacts with any outsiders.

Yes, it was the first book of fiction I have finished reading in such short time. Previously I had read 'The Parable of the Pipeline' in 5 hours. It was non-fiction though and half the size of 'The Da Vinci Code'.

'The Da Vinci Code' was amazing. Dan Brown has done a marvelous job. Right from the facts to the story - everything was incredibe.
