  • I never read mystery but this was actually very good!
  •  definetly was a good book to make into a movie cause the dialogue in the book feels like a movie script.
  • I đź–¤ lisbeth salander

HO. LY. SHITAKE.

While I definitely did make a number of correct guesses in the first half of the book for the ending, there was still one puzzle I didn’t figure out, and I quite enjoyed the entertainment that was acted upon in solving that last mess. This was a thrilling ride of torment and love (not together).

Note: know your personal triggers and what you can handle. Sexual abuse and violent crimes against women is a theme that pops up several times and is graphically described.

J'ai beaucoup apprécié le livre parce qu'il se déroule au sein d'une grande famille, donc il y a beaucoup de personnages mais on s'y perd pas. Pour un livre écrit début 2000 et par un homme, je le trouve assez engagé. Ça se lit très bien, les éléments sont apportés tranquillement au fur et à mesure mêm  si le début met un peu de temps à se mettre en place. La page de fin est absolument mais absolument nulle.

The book was great and all of the characters had great character development and depth, unfortunately for me I decided to start reading it during a period of time when I was having a really hard time staying engaged and finding the motivation to read. The slow pace of this book caused it to be almost impossible to finish, I found the ending a little underwhelming however I understand why it was the way it was since the whole point of the book was to capture corporate greed and corruption. All in all it was a great book however I had a hard time finishing it. Will re-read soon since I’m sure there were small details of the story I missed!

Wow the Swedes know how to write a thriller! The weaving of Salander’s, Blomkvist’s, and the Vanger clan’s stories was genius. I had a slow start, but really found myself wrapped in this story. Highly recommend, but check content warnings.
