内容説明
Forty years ago, Harriet Vanger disappeared from a family gathering on the island owned and inhabited by the powerful Vanger clan. Her body was never found, yet her uncle is convinced it was murder - and that the killer is a member of his own tightly knit but dysfunctional family. He employs disgraced financial journalist Mikael Blomkvist and the tattooed, truculent computer hacker Lisbeth Salander to investigate. When the pair link Harriet's disappearance to a number of grotesque murders from forty years ago, they begin to unravel a dark and appalling family history. But the Vangers are a secretive clan, and Blomkvist and Salander are about to find out just how far they are prepared to go to protect themselves.

Sorry I Read It
It's too bad that Stieg Larsson could not have believed in his own talents enough to avoid appealing to the basest of human instincts to sell books. I bought Girl with the Dragon Tattoo to read for book club. But I'm sorry I spent one penny on it or read one word. Men's brutality to women is not a subject that I care to read about. How could the author look his own mother in the face after conceiving and writing of such brutality. Not that the entire book is trash. There is worthy material there, enough to keep me reading beyond the point where I should have bailed out. But I did bail out long before the end and only wish I had done so sooner.
Terrible
I am 160 pages in at the moment, but just can't go any further. Based on what's happened so far I should be about 30 pages in. A boring, cliche-ridden book that creates no suspense and needs a good hard edit. I get more excitement from reading Spot's First Walk with my daughter for the 100th time.
Incredible detail
The depth and detail in the book is exceptional. The mystery was so well developed and the various angles were linked. Flowing from beginning to end without that typical brief wrap up in the last few chapters. Well written and very interesting.
Great read
Finally I was able to land my hands on a good thriller and once I finished this book I bought its sequel (girl who played with fire). Full credits to the author. I am taking away one star because at times it gets verbose (so you need to be know how to skim) and that the last 50 pages of the book are really a stretch since the mystery was already solved.
a good crime thriller, but that's it
For some reason, a number of people have hyped "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" as anything more than a thriller, as some book that tackles broad ideas regarding society. While Larsson does present a fairly cynical view of the world, I'm not sure that there's any great social commentary to be made. In the end, this is just a crime thriller. Don't expect Tolstoyian philosophical details, no matter how some try to present it.
As far as the crime thriller part goes, it's fairly good. It's hurt by the lead character (at least in terms of page time) being a rather dislikable and dishonorable character. The title character (who serves more of a supporting role in terms of page time) is a far more compelling and interesting one, although Larsson seems to take pleasure in making her life as rough as possible.
The resolution to the main mystery comes a bit early; the resolution to the lead character's predicament is achieved later but in a far less satisfying manner.
