My brother-in-law just started it. His girlfriend will start it when he's done. Another friend also just started it. I think because it looks like such a long book, people hesitate to get into it, since there are so many wonderful (and shorter) books to read. It's worth it. Plus, the quality of the writing makes it go fast.<br /><br />I've talked to a few people who have read the book that think the beginning is really dry. It's a lot of background information that you need to know to understand what is going on with the book. I actually didn't mind it. I thought it was going to be tough slogging, but it wasn't. It was easy to read, just not "exciting".Lonihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16248163148722597124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30889172.post-1540765110167241812010-10-22T08:27:51.508-04:002010-10-22T08:27:51.508-04:00I had similar issues with this book - too slow to ...I had similar issues with this book - too slow to get going, then it wrapped up too early in the end. It really was Lisbeth's character that inspired me to read the second in the series, and I do plan on reading the third.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12390357169573998035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30889172.post-81307288161989570192010-10-21T12:15:41.793-04:002010-10-21T12:15:41.793-04:00Excellent review Loni.

On the list...wonder when i'll get to it though.Mayowahttp://www.penswithcojones.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30889172.post-1859482793210320072010-10-21T10:22:31.378-04:002010-10-21T10:22:31.378-04:00Glad you liked it & thanks for reining in the ...Glad you liked it & thanks for reining in the spoilers for the few of us (is it just me? LOL!) who haven't read it yet. I also succumbed to temptation & have a copy of The Dragon Tattoo on my TBR shelf. It'll probably be a couple of books later before I start it. Atwood is calling me next!Teacher/Learnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13280690822570558469noreply@blogger.com
