Thanks, Catie! I do think that Stieg Larsson's life had enough interesting and exciting details in it to base a book or a movie on it.
I also think Terry Pratchett quotes are applicable to most situations in life :)

I firmly believe that no conversation (or in this case, no review) is complete without a reference to Terry Pratchett. I admire his genius.
Excellent review! I love your shelf-name, 'awesome-kickass-heroines'. I recently started my 'strong-smart-female-protagonist' shelf, a name I borrowed from Kaethe. Not as sassy as yours, but I wanted to include the heroines who don't actually kick anything...
I am (gradually) working through her list to label what I have, and see what I just gotta have. Hope you don't mind if I do likewise with yours. I am lazy that way, and I learn a lot!

Well, my definition of "kickass" is broad enough to include the non-kicking types as well :) And you are definitely welcome to work through my shelves!
Thanks for the review, Nataliya. You've changed my name on whether or not to read it (I might have read the original :)

Well, I'm glad :) But here is a word of warning - the first 50-70 pages or so are a bit tedious, but the story picks up once the exposition is done. It's rather interesting exposition, by the way, but it has turned some people off theis book.

And of course I love the Terry Pratchett quote. :)
