Me gustó el ritmo del libro... volver a leer a los personajes que tanto gustaron con el autor original... Aunque sí se nota que no fue escrito por Larsson...
Not nearly as good as Stieg Larsson's original trilogy.
It took awhile to get into since it had been so Long since I read the other books in the series. Once I got into it I enjoyed it. I felt the new author was able to capture the uniqueness of Lisbeth.
Jeg var ikke lige så glad for Lagercrantz version af Lisbeth Salander, som Larssons version. Dog var det en underholdende bog, så den får 4 stjerner :)

There are a lot of advantages to listening to a book on the desk but there are also disadvantages. One disadvantage is not knowing how far from the end you are until it's almost over. I don't know if that is why I feel like I knew the answers before Larsen would've given them to us but I did.
Loved it! Of course, no one is Steig Larsson, but the story flowed and was compelling and I loved all the smart, strong women. A great listen!!
What is there to say about "Det som inte dödar oss" aka "A Rapariga Apanhada na Teia de Aranha" aka "The Girl in the spider's web" aka - what should be the real translated title -"That which doesn't kill us"?
Well, Queen Lisbeth is back, a f- badass as usual and the genius storyline of her past comes back to haunt her. It has a nice plot and promises a huge story to keeps us turning pages. And it indeed has a great story, but it just doesn't feel like a Lisbeth kind of story. She's there, but her soul isn't. It's like David Lagercrantz tried to remake "The Girl Who Played with fire" but putting aside Zalachenko and picking other character from Lisbeth childhood to be the villain.
Like I said, it is a good story that proves once again that the nordic escandinavian contries are the best at this kind of stories, but it doesn't bring anything new to Lisbeth or Mikael. And it ended promising a sequel that I hope that doesn't happen because I DESPAIRINGLY need Millennium #4 draft script that Stieg left us before he died.
The book is good, allright, but it'd be better if it were a stand alone novel. The writing is great - it's more emotional than the raw writing of late Larsson - and the plot is nice. A little "americanized" with all that Marvel shit and NSA and stuff like that. The plotwist what predictable. The subplots are a bit boring - Bubla and "does God exists?" is a little annoying, and what happened to Sonja Mondig's boyfriend?, and WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO ROSA FIGUEROLA? I MEAN DAVID, I THOUGHT MIKAEL HAD FOUND LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Overall, nice reading.
