DA TOGLIERE IL FIATO!
Come al solito larsson mi lascia senza parole.
Un pò più tecnico rispetto alprimo per quanto riguardano le indagini e quindi in alcuni punti un pò logorante..ma come al solito è necessario. Verrete ricompensati con scoop a dir poco da fantascienza.
solo che non finisce..o meglio finisce ma..lascia in sospeso..almeno per me che sono una curiosona e che non voglio lasciare nulla all'immaginazione..io voglio sapere!!!!!!
e per sapere dovrò andare avanti con il prossimo romanzo della serie.
mi ha davvero conquistata. era da tanto che non leggevo un poliziesco così intrigante.
e poi vogliamo parlare di Lisbeth? anche se un pò sottotono rispetto al primo rimane la mia preferita e inquesto volume capiamo moooooooooooooolte cose.
da leggere assolutamente!!!!!

This is not a book for the faint of heart. Excellent story with more information about Lisabeth's history. I wanted more info about who Lisbeth was and why she had the personality she had, so for me this was really a bonus. Some others may feel there was too much background info and not enough guts to the story. I don't agree with that. The story was every bit as complete as the first book, " Girl with the Dragon Tattoo".

Comparing to the previous novel which was mystery-oriented, the second one is more suspenseful as characters investigates the mastermind of the series of crimes. Although little information is presented, the readers become an aware that something had happened between young Lisbeth and the guy in the past.
