MY BLOG:
I thought this book was wonderful! I have missed Lisbeth and Blomkvist for so long. I think the new author did a great job carrying on Stieg Larsson's series.
Lisbeth is one of the coolest women out there. I love her character, I love how smart she is, oh if I could be as smart as her. I do hate her past, but I am glad that she is a character that was written to rise above all of the horrible things that happened to her.
In this new book there is another scandal of sorts going on within a huge community of people. A lot of things going on in the hacker community, people stealing other people's work, killings, blackmail, a little boy with Autism, evilness and goodness. And of course Lisbeth is right in the middle of it all and she does her job as hard core as she always does.
In the beginning of the book the author does have Blomkvist thinking back on things that happened in the other three books, nothing real extensive but I thought it was a nice little add to the book.
I was very much intrigued and on the edge of my seat between the interactions with the little boy (August) and Lisbeth. She was so good with him and she did things that needed to be done and in her own wonderful way. I wanted to get up and cheer her on! I can't really say anything because there is no way I'm giving out any kind of spoiler for this book!
The ending was good and set up to possibly have more books, I hope there will be.
I personally loved the book, as I have mentioned. I know there are people that hate it or love it because it is Stieg's original characters. But for myself.. I think the family did a good job in choosing this man to start a continuation of what is a wonderful character.

Are you liking it Melissa. I didn't love the 2nd book. I thought it was very repetitive, so I never read the third. Then when the publishers were offering this I thought, maybe not. I will be interested to see what you think.

I loved the others. So far so good on this one. The new author seems to be holding true to Stieg Larson's series, in my opinion at least. I'm going to try to finish it today if I can, not feeling too good but really want to finish it. :-)
I was wary of trying this (enjoyed the previous three). Might have to give it a try.
It's one of those that people hate or love. I loved it, which I'm glad, I was afraid Lisbeth's character would be butchered, but it wasn't.
Nice review, Melissa. I read the series a couple of years ago, and I liked very much. I didn't know this book and I have to admit I am a little suspicious about sequel written by another author.I'm looking forward to read this and I am confident after reading your review.
Thank you Andrew! :) I have the books and the movies of all three. I wanted to take the chance to see if the author the family hired could do a good job and in my opinion he did, but you know what opinions are like :) I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Your welcome :)
Thank you Deanna :-)
Great review, Melissa. I think I will read it now. Thanks for writing such a good review!
Wonderful review indeed, Melissa. :)
Great review :) I'll probably never read these books, have so many to read but I liked the movies.
This was a helpful review. I was very excited to see this trilogy carried on, especially since I wasn't in love with book 3. Book 2 was my favorite.
I love your review Melissa and I loved the interactions between August and Lisbeth. I would love it if more books are written and I read that they're going to adapt this installment into a movie! I hope they bring back all of the original actors, or at least Noomi Rapace and Michael Nyqvist :)
I got a like from this yesterday and I only then noticed that so many people commented and I never commented back. I want to thank you all, I must not have been getting notifications that day and I'm not getting all of them to this day so I'm not sure. But thank you to all of those that commented :-)
Thank you sweetie =] ❤️
Hello!
Thank you honey. I'm not making many comments. I have cancer and hell begins next week so I'm not ignoring anyone.

I hope you love it B ❌⭕�
