I liked this one much better than Dragon Tattoo, and I really enjoyed that one. I loved that we learned more about Lisbeth- and the more I learned, the more I liked her. And I liked her before! What a great character.
I enjoyed this much more than the first book. Although I still feel like these are a bit vulgar, it was intense! I think Swedish liberalism is still a bit much for me to swallow - but a page-turning tale to the very end! I also enjoyed the renewed focus on Salander, she's a much more entertaining character than Blomsky.

Well, Larsson didn’t get any better at writing. And it shouldn’t take halfway through the book to get to the actual mystery! The journalists didn’t get killed for hundreds of pages. That’s why there had to be the Caribbean prelude where Lisbeth there had to be a mini-mystery to get you hooked enough to stay until the big mystery shows up. After the real mystery started, it got pretty good. Lisbeth is a stone cold bad ass. Plus, she takes on and then takes out basically everybody who crosses her.
