A great, easy read. My only complaint is that Larsson has too many plots. He wraps them up in the end, but sometimes I couldn't help but get frustrated when someone new was introduced sometimes half way through the book.
Already looking forward to reading it again when it pubs in the U.S. and I can absorb it all at a more leisurely pace.
Demorou muito tempo para começar a desenvolver.
Apesar de ser um livro interessaste é muito parado, o que dificulta a leitura.
Mas no fundo é pena não haver mais ;)

When they finally get around to translating it in English, I'll let you know.
A great ending to the trilogy (though there is a rumor there may be a 4th manuscript out there). This was an engaging read that I couldn't put down- just as exciting as the first two books.
Another dreadful book. God, it’s such a shame that the 2nd and 3rd haven’t lived up to the 1st. Sexist, boring and, at times, incredibly unnecessarily racist, there is nothing appealing about this novel.
Salander is such a great character it’s a shame she’s practically pushed to the side.
The last 100 pages were good, the trial etc, but other than that, and even with that, the book is terrible.

I was fully prepared to give this book one star while I was stuck in the depths of Larsson's useless details, bombardment of confusing Swedish names, and dry dialogue. I had to stop halfway through because I literally could not find the resolve to trudge on. I'm glad I did end up finishing it, though, because Part 4 somewhat made up for all of the snore-inducing pages preceding it. But since I'm never one to forgive and forget, I can't possibly give a higher rating.
Fantastic end to the first trilogy. The urgent energy in this book was amazing, and I love a good courtroom finale. My only gripe is that plenty of characters were made to be exceptionally stupid for added tension (not even to advance the plot). Keeping two people who tried to kill each other in almost adjoining hospital rooms with no security? Turning off your phone and computer for days on end during a time-sensitive life and death situation?
come ho scritto sul blog mentre lo stavo leggendo (mangiando, letteralmente) la cosa più brutta è sapere che non ci sarà mai la possibilità di sapere cosa succederà a liz e a kalle nei successivi sette capitoli della saga.
ecco.
per il resto, è quel che è. bello, intrigante, calamita (e calamità), non memorabile.

Just as good as the other "The Girl Who..." books! Some loose ends are tied up but other present themselves and leave you wondering where the series would have gone had Larsson not died.
