It was a great read, though the last book is the weakest, I can’t help think it was stretch out a bit too much and sometimes went in a circle where you’re digesting the same information again and again.
Still I recommend this to anyone who likes crime thrillers.

Really enjoyed the first book and both versions of the film, although I’d hoped to keep some of the macabre mystery with the girl never being found. Decided I had to read the whole trilogy and watch the three films, which I persevered with but honestly didn’t enjoy. Too much is explained and everything tied up.

Seldom have I come across a protagonist as Salander and she doesn’t disappoint. The writing is griping and is a definite page turner. Pity that Larsson passed away when he did. Lost a really good novelist in the process. I would recommend this book to all those who love thrillers.
