The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo
I finally gave in and for book club read the uber popular GWTDT. It was interesting. I like the pulp fiction easy-reading aspect of it. I read the last 300 pages in one day. I liked that there were multiple stories going on to keep it interesting. I liked the characters--reminiscent of Diva. I don't like the endless detail that so many books contain. When an author tells me the character is having a sandwich, that's all I need to know. I don't need to know there were pickles and mustard on it. Likewise with the coffee. Seriously, I understand that these people drink coffee (most do). I don't need to read the line "and [s]he made a pot of coffee" every five pages. At any rate, the author is dead so my criticism is for naught. Good read, I'll probably check out the next one in the trilogy.
