(Thanks.
)
I definitely recommend the audio book -- the guy they got to do the reading is a delight to listen to, and I love to hear all the Swedish names pronounced. He brings a lot of emotion and inflection to the reading that helps cut through the WALL O TEXT about Blomkvist's (sp?) preferred Notepad programs and whatnot. (I DON'T CARE, LARSSON.)
The audio books definitely made all the difference in the world for me. I actually like the paper books NOW, but I wouldn't have gotten there without the audio.
