Love this series!
Good book. Too bad the author died so young as he had real talent.
A page turner
Loved it
It was a good mystery
Great series.
One of my favorite series.
You don’t need my review. This is an internationally known book, and then movie. It is rightfully praised for its different, interesting take on life.
likeable characters but a slow starter. Hang in there it’s a fabulous book
It was a little slow at the beginning, although it really was good information for the rest of the book. The heroine was vulnerable, but totally kick- butt strong. I liked that. Sometimes you felt sorry for her and cheered her on when she got back at the person who caused her grief. It was pretty graphic in some areas.
I enjoyed this book very much. The characters aren’t your typical heroes and heroines. That’s what makes it interesting.
A great original story that you can’t put down. Lisabeth Salander is a character that will go down in history.
Really enjoyed this series. I didn’t bother to see the movie because the novel was just so good that I didn’t want to be disappointed (though Daniel Craig is hardly disappointing to look at…)
Started very slow, but then couldn’t put it down. Sadly, the author died before he could tie up all the loose ends in the three books. Still worth reading.
Another must read.
Really enjoyed this book.
Loved it! Fantastic read!
Excellent
The beggining is a little slow, but it’s because the author is building the foundation for this book and to tie it all together with the rest of the trilogy. After I got passed the first few chapters I couldn’t put it down and craved to read the other books. Suspence and mistery awaits you!
One of the most original and memorable books I have read in years! This book will grab you by the imagination and hold you long after you think you have put it down!
