This is the kind of series I would never normally read, but my curiosity got the better of me. It was so popular I had to pick it up. It started out really slow for me, since I have no interest in the financial babble at the beginning. Once Lisbeth was introduced, my interest was peaked. Lisbeth i...

I'm not sure what I expected, but I didn't expect a novel about financial skull duggery. I also didn't expect a novel in which the prime character was a young woman with rather severe autism spectrum disorder. Still and all, it's pretty fascinating. I doubt I'll read any more of the series, but at l...

The first time I lost interest.Then someone in my household DVR'd the movie and I wanted to read the book first so gave it another try. I am glad that I did, though it seemed to be a stretch for me in the believable category, I still enjoyed what happened.
