I couldn't put this book down once I picked it up. They developed Salander's character and explained a bit of her background. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars. (  ) meags222 | Nov 25, 2009 |  living2read | Nov 23, 2009 | Another 'can't put this book down' entry from Larsson. Beginning over a year after the last events in The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo we find Salander and Blomkvist separately pursuing some very dangerous information and a very dangerous man. I really want to read the third book as soon as I can get it. 1  hailelib | Nov 20, 2009 | excellent 2nd book... and we have to wait until 2010 for the 3rd!! ( ) mcgovern75 | Nov 16, 2009 | I couldn't put this book down. Larsson has created unique characters with Blomkvist and Salander who give the story credibility and an added urgency. I liked the first book, but this book made me apreciate both even more. (  ) egarabis | Nov 15, 2009 | 
 When a novel moves or affects me deeply, I think about it when I’m walking around. I don’t find myself thinking about The Girl Who Played With Fire, but while I was reading it, I was useless until I got to the end. In retrospect, my experience of the book, like it’s characters, seems unreal. As, of course, it was. When Larsson gets down to the business of telling a story, he tells a nerve-tingling tale. For all the complications of the melodramatic story, which advances at a brisk, violently cinematic clip in Reg Keeland’s translation, it’s clear where Larsson’s strongest interests lie — in his heroine and the ill-concealed attitudes she brings out in men. Mr. Larsson’s two central characters, Salander and Blomkvist, transcend their genre and insinuate themselves in the reader’s mind through their oddball individuality, their professional competence and, surprisingly, their emotional vulnerability.
