I'm halfway through the book and I really like it. It's fast paced and it keeps my attention. I love it.

On the bashing religion part, I just have to say to everyone, *it's JUST a book*... Personally, I don't believe in God, and I don't look at the book as being a religious-bashing book... It's a book, if you don't like what's being said, then don't read it. Just my opinion, not meant AT anyone or to anger anyone.

I'd like to see the movie, but the books are ALWAYS better than the movie!
