Fiction/Mystery: The Girl Who Played with Fire, by Stieg Larsson

Very excited to find this for sale in Dublin in February (won’t be released in U.S. until July 28), this is the followup to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, one of my favorite books from last year.

I really liked it. But there’s a bit of a sadistic streak in these books that may not be palatable for everyone and there’s a bit more of it in this book as Lisbeth’s former life takes a much bigger role this time around.

Highly recommend both of these. They are really smart, really tightly plotted and interesting from many different angles.

Random quote I enjoyed (As Lisbeth reads some private police reports via computer hacking): It proved once again the theory that no security system is a match for a stupid employee.
