Even with those complaints I found them entertaining in that grocery store novel sort of way. But I don't think they live up to all the hype they have gotten.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16100175422529019874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838259016251265825.post-46149422473923476652010-08-04T08:25:03.988-07:002010-08-04T08:25:03.988-07:00truth be told, i have never read any of these book...truth be told, i have never read any of these books. i don't usually go for best sellers- but the story of stieg larsson is just so intriguing. did you know he died of a major heart attack at age 50 before his work was ever published?samantha ramagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16868661722638522954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838259016251265825.post-79301047615900264272010-08-03T13:42:20.784-07:002010-08-03T13:42:20.784-07:00im in need of a new book - maybe ill read this xxx...im in need of a new book - maybe ill read this xxxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10588508304788464579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838259016251265825.post-63904912762556685432010-08-03T12:39:11.532-07:002010-08-03T12:39:11.532-07:00I just started it....I just started it....Chelsea Talks Smackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17998747129805795801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838259016251265825.post-32052947269028575502010-08-03T07:35:15.357-07:002010-08-03T07:35:15.357-07:00I LOVE these books!

I had a friend who just couldn't get past the graphic descriptions, but I remind myself that they are just a story. I agree that the first one took a while to find its rhythm. I'm now reading "What is the What" which is kind of the same way.Eviehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13988569630969427053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838259016251265825.post-58805210886381253832010-08-02T22:33:20.433-07:002010-08-02T22:33:20.433-07:00I oddly just got #2 at the library, but never got ...I oddly just got #2 at the library, but never got #1.

The first one was hard to get into, I think around page 70 is when I really got hooked. <br /><br />There is a rumor that there is going to be a (US version) movie next year with Daniel Craig. <br /><br />Have you read anything about Stieg Larsson?

I wasn't as drawn to the characters though and haven't felt a pull to read the next books in the series. Too many other great books on my nightstand, perhaps. Or I think these are better travel books than reading-before-bed books.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04604043603331696042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838259016251265825.post-31890578746765720502010-08-02T09:01:05.239-07:002010-08-02T09:01:05.239-07:00I've never read it but I've heard the same...I've never read it but I've heard the same thing about the book from people I know who've read it. <br /><br />I saw the movie a couple of months ago at the theater (It's now an instant movie on Netflix if you have Netflix) and am planning to see <i>The Girl Who Played With Fire</i> which is currently playing at indie theaters.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10096503886379254488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838259016251265825.post-55519762211886901272010-08-02T08:55:14.177-07:002010-08-02T08:55:14.177-07:00i've been wanting to get into them but haven&#...i've been wanting to get into them but haven't had time yet. one person told me the writing was absolutely horrible! but that was one out of a million who love it! i'm looking forward to getting hooked. :)luke and pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00529150731087367811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838259016251265825.post-54855154030440112782010-08-02T08:41:45.753-07:002010-08-02T08:41:45.753-07:00I've read the first 2 and waiting to read the ...I've read the first 2 and waiting to read the 3rd.
