200 pages in and I can see what all the fuss is about - I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

I probably shouldn't admit this, and Kenny, I don't want to discourage you from reading them, but I had to start "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" three times before I could settle down to it. I don't know how much was my own state of mind at the time, but it seemed to be a really slow starter to me. Once Lisbeth shows up it gets better, and moves faster, and I did finally finish it, but although I do have plans to read the other two "someday", I'm in no hurry.
