The End of the Da Vinci Code

The ending was a really big twist ending. The Teacher was unveiled to be someone I didn't even think about--Teabing! But it made a lot of sense really even though I, like Silas, thought the Teacher would be a very prominent religious figure. I think when Remy spoke so hatefully of Teabing, it threw me off because after I didn't think they would be working together. Having to kill and think of such a complicated plot shows really how twisted and obsessed Teabing became with seacrhing for the Holy Grail. Because he is the villain so many things make sense, like why he didn't turn Langdon and Sophie in, which also could have been his obsession though. I was also surprised that Sophie had remaining family, but I had guessed that Sophie was of the royal bloodline. I think Dan Brown made Sophie and Mary Magdalene both have red hair as a subtle hint of relationship, either that or I'm reading too much into it. This book definitely wasn't a let down, quite the opposite it might just be my favorite book.
