The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

A journalist is hired by a wealthy man to solve the murder of his niece, 40 years after it happened.  The journalist discovers that this is not a normal family.  There are twists and turns throughout this book that will keep readers hooked.  I loved the character of Lisbeth--a researcher/computer hacker with her own set of dysfunctions.  She kicked ass.  I had heard that this book started off slowly and it did a bit (a lot of background information and people all at once) but once it picked up, boy did it pick up!  I really enjoyed this book and have the others in the series to read (this is the first book in the series).  I recommend this book.

  1. It did start a little slowly, but like you it totally had my attention once it got going. I remember reading one afternoon until I realized it was now dark and I had never gotten around to making dinner.

  2. A sign of a good book--forgetting food :-)
