jilfie 's review for:
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Trilogy
by Stieg Larsson
I was dubious when I began. I had heard only good things about it, but I had also only heard good things about Twilight three years ago. Needless to say, after that particular incident, I do not trust hype.
But I have to admit that this novel lived up to it. I was not disapointed in the slightest. It was engaging, thrilling, graphic, and a bit bitter-sweet. The characters were all vivid and incredibly polarizing. You either liked someone, or you hated them. Most of the time, they were fascinating. Especially Lisbeth Salander. And although I guessed in the beginning who-done-it, and I was right, I didn't think it was predictable. Because, while I was right, there was so much more to the story that I could not have possibly imagined.
