You know, I feel for his girlfriend, for want of a better name for her, but...<br />that is why people make legal arrangements. like MARRIAGE. or even a will..or something. Did neither of them ever consider something, anything could happen?caitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05824538078958999767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-78315075720186316932010-05-23T20:16:58.324-04:002010-05-23T20:16:58.324-04:00what an amazing review and great summary of the fi...what an amazing review and great summary of the first 2 books! did you read the NY times article that came out today about the fight between the family and Stieg Larsson's long-term girlfriend? It was excellent! But I'm a huge Larsson groupie anyways!

I did read the paragraph you wrote about how it would end given the author's plans for many other books. I'm so glad that the ending is satisfying, even with hints of what might have happened had he not died.<br /><br />I've never been one to think about or read fan fiction, but I might consider reading what other people think happens next.<br /><br />P.S. I am exactly opposite of you regarding foreign words. If I don't know how to pronounce them, I get really frustrated and it takes away from the novel. So, reading these novels via audiobook was perfect for me.<br /><br />I am really hoping that the movie comes near me, but Roanoke isn't big on subtitled movies.

But I agree with you though, it isn't one you should pick up without having read the others. I really had a sad feeling at the end too, because it could easily have gone on, but of course there is no more Larsson to do that.rhapsodyinbookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07041412748239010264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-51112985333708503032010-05-21T21:18:26.432-04:002010-05-21T21:18:26.432-04:00Thanks to you, I just finished this book tonight! ...Thanks to you, I just finished this book tonight! I agree with you ... I was worried it was going to feel unresolved at the end because I had heard it was not meant to be the last book but I think I was very satisfied with the ending ... it worked and it felt "cleaned up." Thank goodness. I feel like I can walk away from Lisbeth and Mikael and leave them in a good place. <br /><br />And I agree with you 100% about being confused and lost with the Swedish names and places ... at times, I just kind of guessed who I was reading about.<br /><br />Thank you again for sending me your "extra" copy!!!! I'm eternally grateful!Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-29015998116931626662010-05-21T21:07:21.113-04:002010-05-21T21:07:21.113-04:00I am so behind!

And once I get it, of course, I'm going to want to go hide somewhere and listen to the whole thing, which, at 600 pages, is going to take a bit of time. I'm afraid I'm going to be so totally sad when it is over.Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-17856656774774152112010-05-21T08:32:59.880-04:002010-05-21T08:32:59.880-04:00I am eagerly awaiting this book!I am eagerly awaiting this book!Nise' https://www.blogger.com/profile/15586400022454009379noreply@blogger.com
