About This Book
ONE OF TIME MAGAZINE'S 100 BEST MYSTERY AND THRILLER BOOKS OF ALL TIME #1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER The thrilling first book in the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series featuring Lisbeth Salander: “Combine the chilly Swedish backdrop and moody psychodrama of a Bergman movie with the grisly pyrotechnics of a serial-killer thriller, then add an angry punk heroine and a down-on-his-luck investigative journalist, and you have the ingredients of Stieg Larsson’s first novel” (The New York Times).
Who This Is For
Best for readers who want to be kept on edge: propulsive, twisty, and hard to put down. The writing rewards attention without being demanding, a good balance of depth and readability. The pacing is balanced, time to breathe between moments that matter. Readers who prefer character depth over plot drive may find it thin.
Best Read When
Best read when you're in the mood for something tense and impossible to put down, and a read that's balanced and absorbing.
What It Explores
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo explores revenge and whether it ever delivers what it promises, identity and the gap between who we are and who we pretend to be, and power and ambition and what they cost the people who pursue them.
