bamandia 's review for:
The Girl Who Played with Fire
by Stieg Larsson
i liked this story way more than i did the first.
perhaps it's because i was already familiar with the characters and i didn't have to go through that whole "intro" portion again. perhaps it was that this story was more interesting to me (i just didn't love the corporate intrigue plot in dragon tattoo). perhaps it is because the book really delves into the past (and present) of our antiheroine, lisbeth salander. we finally get some answers on why she is the way she is, what "All The Evil" means, and why she's the woman who hates men who hates women.
i think that larsson has incredibly strong and interesting characters in both salander and blomkvist, great for writing more and more sequels, and even better for making films out of these books. it's disappointing to think that there's only 1 more book to go. this light was extinguished way too early.
