amerynth 's review for:
The Girl Who Played with Fire
by Stieg Larsson
While I really enjoyed the first installment of this trilogy by Stieg Larsson, I was somewhat disappointed by "The Girl Who Played with Fire." It just wasn't as gripping or interesting as the first book.
This book focuses on Lisbeth Salander, framing a mystery around everything that makes her tick. Unfortunately, it took forever for the book to get going... (so many lists in the beginning.... Here is what Lisbeth bought at the grocery store, here is what she bought at IKEA... ugh!) Once the story started picking up steam the book got more interesting, but the major reveal was pretty obvious so it didn't half as long to put the puzzle pieces together as it did for all the characters.
I will probably read the third book in the series just because it's the last one... I'm not super excited about it.
