Unabridged Audiobook
This book was AWESOME! I had a hard time getting out of the car and would sit in the garage just listening many evenings after coming home from work. My 27 year old daughter carpools with me, and she was mesmerized as well. Just waiting with baited breath for the next in this series to come in the mail!
Didn’t like it !!!
super slow start...halfway through and I could not understand the hype...and THEN boom! strong finish, solid listen and the narrator did a superb job carrying this book across the finish line...worth the slow start...outstanding (yet super dark)!
Moody and interesting story. Engaging mystery and characters.
This is one of the best books I've read in a long time. It gave everything a book is supposed to give and more. I enjoyed the audiobook so much I have purchased the series in paperback to reread it Books 2 and 3 just got better to me.
Loved this book. The first few hours were difficulty to get into because it’s a lot of background info. But once you get past that, the story is amazing!
EXCELLENT narration and a wonderfully written story. Amazing plot twists. Extremely interesting. Great book.
A little exposition heavy but a great book. I'll be looking forward to the next 2.
Great book, really pulls you in. Narrator has an excellent performance in spanning all the characters. I highly recommend.
This book was awesome. I really liked it. Narrator was fantastic.
Absolutely loved this book and the narration of it. Can't wait to continue listening to the other books in this series.
Very good book,can't wait to read the other books in the series, I would highly recommend.
LOVED IT!!! Agree with the slow start, but wow, once it grabbed you it was impossible to stop listening!
What a great book! Suspenseful, exciting and totally twisted at the end! There were many graphic moments that made my stomach turn but we're such detailed analysis of the characters you couldn't not appreciate how it was written. Great book!!!
ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!! ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!!!
Excellent book. Can't wait to read the next two in the series.
I wasn't sure what to expect with my first read by this author. It started slow and I almost quit listening. Something told me to stay with it and I'm very glad that I did. I'm nearly finished with the second book in the trilogy and I'm thoroughly hooked on Larsson's writing style and his heroine.
I had already seen and enjoyed the movies (Swedish versions), and I see now that they were fairly accurate to the book, but the book is so much better. Loved it.
A very well writen multi-layered story. I love the quirky, genius, brave save the man, heroine Lisbeth. The dark aspects of the book were presented in a way that they are not gratuitously violent. (From what I heard it seems the movie may have done so,) I am now eager to see what happens next.
It was a little slow getting into the story. Ginny did then enjoy it. Bob couldn't keep all the characters straight; I had to keep reminding him who was who. He finally gave up but asked what happened after I finished listening to it.
This is one of the best series ever. Must read!!! Every single book gets better and you will be glad that the unabridged version is so long. I will listen to this again.
I'm confused as to what all the hype is about. I was bored and only continued listening in hopes it would get better. For me it did not. Too many characters up front and too much exposition. I didn't care enough about the characters by the time the real story started. Maybe I was in the wrong mood or not intelligent enough to "get it." Either way, I was not impressed and have taken the 2 sequels off my Book List.
I almost stopped listening to this because I thought it was boring and I found it hard, at first, to keep the names straight, and it took me some time to get used to the narrator's voice. After it got moving, I really liked it and I really liked the main, title character. Because of that I would like to listen to the others. But not right away, I will take a break.
Good, twisty turny detailed storyline kept my interest. Characters were well developed. Great narrator. I could have done with fewer sex scenes.
