The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

I had a hard time getting into this book in the beginning. The details about the foreign government operations and the fraud made my head spin and I actually quit reading the book. It doesn't help that I wasn't feel well at the time. I finally picked it up again and started over. This time I got through those details to the meatier parts of the book that hooked me in. I'm glad I stuck it through because I did enjoy this book. I will definitely look up and read the other books.

I do have to say though, that even though the book doesn't really give a very clear picture of what Mikael Blomkvist looked like, he must have been a stud. He was having sex with several different women throughout the entire story. He was “all that and a bag of chips,” which all the women freely passed around. No claws came out and only towards the end does one woman seem to show any real feelings about him.
