4.0
"The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" is a tantalizing mystery that weaves a complex narrative around the decades-old disappearance of Harriet Vanger. Despite its occasional lengthiness, the book manages to captivate with its unexpected plot turns. However, I must caution that the presence of the graphic and violent rape scene caught me off guard and could be distressing for some readers, warranting a trigger warning. Nevertheless, I remain intrigued by the characters and storyline, eager to delve into the next installment of this enigmatic series.
Graphic: Rape and Sexual assault
Moderate: Death
