The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson Review

Title: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Author: Stieg Larsson, Translator: Reg Keeland
Publisher: Vintage Crime/Black Lizard
Release Day: September 16, 2008
Rating: 4 out of 5

Summary:It’s about the disappearance forty years ago of Harriet Vanger, a young scion of one of the wealthiest families in Sweden . . . and about her octogenarian uncle, determined to know the truth about what he believes was her murder.

About the Author: Stieg Larsson was a Swedish journalist and writer who passed away in 2004. As a journalist he was active in documenting & exposing Swedish extreme right and racist organizations.  Condensed from Goodreads. 

My review: I read this alongside my sister and mom as our makeshift book club. This was different than I had expected but it is enjoyable as a book club read. I don't think I would have made it through this if it wasn't for the fact I was reading and talking about it with my mom and sister.

Recommend?: Not really, no. The first two books of this are interesting enough to get through. I dropped out of reading this after trying to get through the third. So, whatever you wanna do with your time.

There are five in this series. The fourth and fifth were completed by David Lagercrantz as they were not completed before the author died.
