After finishing the first book I went immediately to the bookstore in order to buy the sequels. On the one hand I was really curious to figure out how to story would end, but on the other I was a little scared because the first book seemed rather closed for me.

This was audiobook #2 for me. It's definitely a different experience than reading the book again. That is to say, it took a heck of a long time to finish listening to it. If I'm not mistaken this second book is longer than the first in the Millennium trilogy in print, so it may be advisable to just ...

If you could cut out all the crap and focus on Lisbeth Salander, this would get 5 Stars every day. But Larsson's writing is so bloated with inane details and tangents I had to really bear down from page 200 to page 500. Glad I did because the last part where Lisbeth comes back into the story is fant...
