finish "Foucalt's Pendulum"

Similar source material to Da vinca code – templars and all that stuff but brilliantly written. I rememeber reading about 10 years ago and loving it – I haven’t re-read it although I might have to find an excuse soon.

Read it a long time ago, when I had a ton of free time. Excellent book! I have tried to read other Umberto Eco books, but, well, I guess that moment has passed for me.
Would love to reread FP if ever stuck on a deserted island, or in rush hour traffic.

One of my favorite books ever.

Persevere – it’s worth it. Think of how you can look down your nose at all those who do the junior option – “The Bible Code”!

By Umberto Eco.
I bought this book at a used bookstore when I was 13. The cover was shiny. I didn’t get five pages into it before throwing it away, discouraged. I tried again and again over the next few years. Finally, I managed to get into it again recently. It is one of the most delicious books I’ve ever read. Like buttery milk chocolate. Mmm… I’m about a third of the way through, and I want to be sure to finish it this time!
