Stellar. Excellent twist, complicated characters. No clear “good” or “bad.” A truly enjoyable read.

All things considered, it’s very good. The topics/themes, the plot, the writing, all good.

However,

the entire subplot of the sexual relationship between Lisbeth and Mikael is completely unnecessary. You could simply flip a switch to make their relationship platonic, and both only would nothing fundamentally change, it would actually have been better. Why must she fall in love with him? It’s so out of character with zero justification or pay off.

And this is a minor point, but

why on earth is it titled the way it is? It sounds good. It sure is mysterious. But the book isn’t *really* about her. And her ooooo spooky dragon tattoo is not relevant to the plot at all.

Aside from that, very good.

There is too much unnecessary information in this book. The plot doesn’t progress until about 60% in and Lisbeth isn’t really a main character.

Men that are so openly feminist are the best!

Tack so mycket Stieg Larson, jag älskar den hör boken.

Ich habe dieses Buch verschlungen, weil ich es nicht aus meinen Händen nehmen konnte!
