The first but dragged a bit, but once it picked up around the halfway point I literally could not put it down. I was carrying my copy around from room to room, unable to take my eyes off the page. Such an exhilarating read with a very interesting cast of characters.

Writing—does its job. 
Plot/characters—riveting plot and I enjoyed the characters. They were fleshed out well w good and bad traits. Even when I didn’t agree with their decisions, I liked Lisbeth, B, and Henrik. 
Profundity—I need to think on this more. But it addresses treatment of women and mental illness and journalistic ethics so profound issues are addressed.

Male protagonist appears to have a magical penis that everyone and their mothers wants.
Slow book, the plot only thickens at the end, and is resolved fairly quickly.
