Like many said, it took me awhile to get into the story but once I did (about 90 pages in - I was glad I stuck with it. I did not enjoy the graphic sexual torture scenes - I think they could have been toned down and still made an impact but the story is an amazing one. The key players Blonkvist and Salander are characters you are just starting to get to know in this first story in the series. I am happy there are two more books in which I will get to know them better.

These stories also have a message that let us know that things need change for woman, the abused and so forth.

I am looking forward to the movie -- I just hope Hollywood doesn't screw it up :)
