“I found that the plot was confusing at the end. How much of Blomkvist's expose was given to him by Henrik Vanger? I too didn't like the ending as much as the build up to it. I felt that the author got a bit bored at the end and just finished the book up quickly.”
“Does anyone see the logic in Salander burning Martin's albums and dumping his laptop and then asking Frode to try to identify as many victims as possibly? If she really cared about the victims, identification would have been easy with Martin's careful documentation. What am I missing?”
“I can't look back on this book and think, "I really enjoyed reading that." I think it was a great book, but it was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo depressing and the sex abuse/torture parts were incredibly hard to read. If it wasn't for those two things I'd have good feelings about the book. I enjoyed the psychological aspects of it, especially the Lisbeth character. I really really liked her. And Mikael of course was interesting too. It was a little irritating that virtually every woman he comes in contact with is instantly attracted to him and want to (and do) sleep with him. But the Lisbeth character rocked and I'm interested in seeing what book 2 is like.”
“hey :) can anyone please tell me what is the book about??”
“it was an interesing read, but did not like how it ended. There was so much detail on plots and the a quick end.”
“I actually kinda liked the book... I liked the detail that he's gone in to describing the back stories and the characters... The ending was a bit brief though... it ended in a rush!!!!”
“I was surprised that I did get into the book. It took a while.”
“I keep trying to like this book...but do we really need yet another novel about the murder of a young woman? I'll finish it, but just because I said I would. ”
“I just finished the book and i did like it but wasn´t the murderer a little to obvious or?”
“If you have read and enjoyed Astrid Lindgren's childrens stories like Pippi Longstocking, ronja the robbers daughter etc, you will soon realise what Stieg Larsson is up to. Writing an adult Pippi in the second book it becomes even more apparent. It is so said that he died we will never know how he weaved in all of Astrids well known characters. What would he have made of Lotta, the children in bullerby, Lionheart and so on. I am so looking forward to reading the third book to be released in English in September/October 09. ”
