alligood2000 's review for:
The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest
by Stieg Larsson
First of all, I love a good conspiracy theory story and this series does not disappoint.
Quirky Lisbeth worked her way into my life little by little. After the first book I wasn't completely on board with this series. By the end of this third book I was cheering.
Once again, I was bothered by the graphic nature of this book. The topic itself is quite graphic, but there are few graphic scenes (if that makes any sense). So there is an underlying layer of ick, but not a lot of unnecessary passages that made me uncomfortable.
Also, I think there are too many characters. It is difficult to keep track of everyone, especially at the end when the story is wrapping up and each character is shown in their true light.
I thought the way the book ends was very satisfying, but I kept thinking we were going to learn more about Lisbeth's twin sister. That felt like a loose end that should have been wrapped up. Why mention she HAS a twin sister if she never comes into the story?
