The DaVinci Code, should i read it?

If you are reading things like Tolkien and Shakespeare and understanding those, I don't see why you wouldn't understand Di Vinci Code. Its a good book and pretty easy to follow. If you don't have an art history background you might not recognize the different artwork that are referenced, but that is easily remedied by looking up the artwork on the net. I say go for it, and if you enjoy it you might want to read Angels and Demons (its the prequel to Di Vinci Code).
