Best parts
- My recent favorite "so unlikely" protagonist, Lisbeth Salander's history and the reason of her reclusiveness is unraveled which will make your heart heavy. The sympathy boils up to the zenith.
- No more description of the toppings on the sandwich.
- Limited description of the words written on the T-shirt.
Bad parts
- Too long background; the main story, the murder mystery, the hunt do not start till you read more than one third of the book.
- No wonder majority lose interest so quickly because this book is as misogynist as part I.
- Excessive details of certain things like the apartment, furnitures did not add anything to the story. But it does make you desperate to hunt the actual story and speed up your read.
Worst part
As you just start to dive inside the revealed secrets, the unraveling mystery, the revenge.... the book ends! Just like that... leaving you with no choice but to open the "hornets' nest" pronto.
Conclusion
Dragon tattoo had the better detective story than this one. The focus on Salander and her secrets is the only interesting thing in this book that pushed me to pursue it till the end.
