The Lost Symbol: Two-Thirds Will Ignore It

That's the gist of last week's poll results.

The question was: How will you greet Dan Brown's new novel, THE LOST SYMBOL?

Full results:

I'll ignore it . . . 8 votes (66%)

I'll buy the ebook . . . 2 votes (16%)

I'll buy the hardcover . . . 1 vote (8%)

I'll check it out from the library . . . 1 vote (8%)

I'll wait for the paperback . . . 0 votes (0%)

Who Brown's what now? . . . 0 votes (0%)

...

So at least everyone knows who Dan Brown is. Yay?

According to a report I'm too lazy to look up right now, the book has sold 2 million copies in its first week. One was to me, in ebook form, and I'm maybe 10% of the way through it. I can see how Brown leads readers from one chapter to the next. The mystery of the SYMBOL hasn't really begun yet.

Anybody else reading it?
