I must admit at first I wasn't too fond of the book. I had a hard time following the beginning because of my lack of understanding regarding the crazy world of professional finance. Due to my diligence and determination I kept reading and became completely addicted to the book. I couldn't put it down. Larsson is a fantastic writer and its saddens me that there won't be anymore writings from him. I would suggest this book to anyone!

I had been bombarded with the hype for this book. I was pleasantly surprised. The plot is deep, the characters are interesting and either likable or hate-ble. The only complaint I have is that the girl with the dragon tatoo isn't really the protagonist. That was an interesting twist all by itself. But it didn't stop there. The plot is thick and I found myself recommending the book to others. Enjoy.

I like the trilogy, and I listened to all three. Simon Vance is a GREAT narrator. I tried to read this book a few times in the past with no success. I found it slow to start and poorly written. If you can get past the countless cliches, and dont hold grudges over tidy plot fixes in other words if you suspend your disbelief enough you will enjoy listening.
