This is one of those stories that is told the way my brother gives directions: "Then you pass a Burger King, but don't turn there; then you pass three streets on your left and two on your right, but don't turn there; then you pass a sign that says I-5 exit 3 miles, but ignore that" OH MY GOD JUST TELL ME WHERE TO TURN.

"How the hell did you find me, you and that anorexic spook that you dragged into this?" haha, and those pesky kids and their dog!

"Armansky had never once heard her laugh before, and for years he had been trying to win her trust. Blomkvist had known her for five minutes and she was practically giggling with him. He felt such a loathing for Blomkvist at that moment that he surprised himself."

Her brother apparently did not notice that every word from their father struck her like a whiplash. Instead, Birger suddenly laughed and put his arm around his father and in his own way made light of the situation by making some comment to the effect that you know full well what women are like. He gave Cecilia a cheerful wink and suggested that Harald Vanger take up a position on a little ridge.

It's kind of weird that Sweden has a statute of limitations for murder.

That was like Veronica Mars got a spot on HBO.

"The novel was about the author's attempt to get a handle on her sex life during a trip to Paris, and Blomkvist wondered whether he could be called a feminist if he wrote a novel about his own sex life in the voice of a high-school student." Awwww snap!

To be honest, I find it . . . boring. But, maybe it will get more interesting, so I am going to keep going this time!
I was being sorta facetious, but then again sorta not really. It seems like it would have the potential for being boring, but it worked (for me). Again, and for the second time today, I refer you to where Joel says the same.
Haha, yeah, I keep thinking about that review. So true. I feel like if you cut the fat off of what I've read, I've only really read like three pages of this story yet, so it's difficult to have any real reaction at this point.
Yeah it took a little while for me to get into it, too.
Ugh. too much talk of sandwiches and apple products to me. I wanted to say WILL YOU GET TO THE POINT! DANG! Cut some of this stuff OUT!
Yeah, it is quite weird.
I had heard about the sandwiches but not the apple products. Do you mean the fruit or the computer company? I did notice in Sweden that apple juice is way popular.
They just eat a lot of apples. Like, not products, but just plain apples. So far.
and Billy's pan pizza!
