The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest Reviews
Sarah Null woke up at 8:00. She showered, dressed, and went into the kitchen. She made some coffee and sandwiches, then she went into the living room and sat in the armchair. She opened up her Sony Vaio laptop and checked her email. There were several emails from Meghan Fang and a few ...
Lisbeth Salander, we hardly knew ye. It seems like a particularly cruel joke that Steig Larsson died shortly after getting a deal to publish his Millennium Trilogy. Would he have continued on with these tales of Salander and journalist Mikeal Blomkvist if he would have lived? Unless...
Luftslottet Som Sprängdes = The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest (Millennium, #3), Stieg Larsson The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest is the third novel in the Millennium series by Swedish writer Stieg Larsson. It was published in Swedish in 2007. The first three no...
I find this entire series very unenjoyable, but I appreciated what I felt were academic analyses of consent and power in the first two books. Because this third installment failed to present any academic point, there was really nothing for me here. The attempt was clearly to say someth...
This is the third (completed) novel of what Stieg had hoped would be a ten-volume opus. At the end of the last book, Lisbeth Salander had been shot by her evil and well-toasted natural father, a former Soviet spy who had been granted immunity in Sweden in return for handing over inform...
I didn't like the second volume of the trilogy as much as the first, so I was initially wary about this book. But after the first few chapters, I was reassured. Despite some obviously implausible elements (even in Sweden, would you really keep two people who had tried to kill each...
It seems to be unfair to rate the two first Millenium-novels by five stars and then give only three stars for the last one. On the other hand it is not fair to write two brilliant books and then publish a 600 pages long epilogue without much of a new story, either. 600 pages look li...
What I learned from this book (in no particular order): 1. You can use duct tapes to close up serious wounds; they keep the blood in and the germs out. 2. You can be shot in the head and STILL have photographic memory, though annoyingly, you will forget the solution to that pesky...
Mr. Larsson, wherever you are, thank you for your magnificent story telling which, like your life, ended too abruptly and much too soon. ...- I loved the Millennium trilogy. I hate that I've now read every novel written by Steig Larsson. I loved the Millennium trilogy. I hate that I've now read every novel written by Steig Larsson. ...more ...
These books really shouldn't work. Stieg Larsson is a very weird writer. He likes to tell us absolutely everything someone is doing. If Stieg wrote the story of my morning, it would go like this: "Joel woke up around 7:45 a.m. and looked at the clock. He decided he didn&ap...
Edited to include link to Nora Ephron's very funny piece ("The Girl Who Fixed the Umlaut") from The New Yorker: http://www.newyorker.com/humor/2010/0... D E P R E S S I O N? You?re probably depressed when, in the space of 3 or 4 weeks, you leave the house ...
?Salander was afraid of no-one and nothing. She realized that she lacked the necessary imagination--and that was evidence enough that there was something wrong with her brain.? Noomi Rapace plays Lisbeth Salander in the excellent Swedish trilogy. She takes the bad girl got...
After finishing The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet?s Nest, the last of the Millennium Trilogy by the late Stieg Larsson, I have a great desire to order a tray of sandwiches and coffee, fire up my 13 inch MacBook Pro, and order some Ikea furniture online. Larsson?s crisp, journalist...
I thoroughly enjoyed this series. Highly recommended! ...
The final instalment of the Millennium series picks up where Book 2 ends, as the main characters are in some real trouble. While some may say this is the 'best of the lot', I venture to say that Books 1 and 3 are in a tight race for this honour. It does tie up some important ...
Book Review 4+ of 5 stars to The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, the third book in the trilogy written by Stieg Larsson shortly before he died. The series has been picked up by another author who's published book 4 and set to release number 5 later this year. ...
Love these stories by the late Stieg Larsson and this is no exception! 9 of 10 stars ...
Another short review due to glitches on GR! Lisbeth is recovering in the hospital but she has to go to court because she is being charged with the murder of her rapist. Who cares if she did in my opinion. Mikael and the gang are also trying to get things pinned on Lisbeth&a...
The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest is the final part in Stieg Larsson's hugely popular "Millennium" series, and it pulls all the threads together from the trilogy. This is surprising, because apparently Larsson planned the series as having ten installments, but d...
(A-) 82% | Very Good Notes: A predictable outcome with no real surprises along the way, but characters are well drawn and the pace never slows. ...
In comparison to the first two books in the Millennium series, this one was pretty weak. I feel like I didn't get a full serving of Lisbeth in this one, and quite honestly, I'm still hungry. Unfortunately, Lisbeth Salander spends the majority of her time in this book in a ...
The best of the best. The best of the best. ...more ...
Ok, I went from wanting to hug Lisbeth in previous book to high fiving her in this one. Blomkvist did ok too. Ok, he did more than ok, he can have his cookie. Can they have more interaction already? And now that that chapter of her life is over, what's next? I should probably ...
The Millennium trilogy are an exceptional set of books. It?s such a shame that Larsson wasn?t able to see the impact his characters made, but what a legacy to leave behind. Just like I mentioned in my previous reviews for The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Girl Who Played ...
Goodbye, Stieg Larsson. I have only gotten to know your books more than eleven years after your untimely death, but they will continue to have a thought-provoking impact on me and my reading experiences. The "Millennium" series is one of the most famous Scandinavian thrill...
?If love is liking someone an awful lot, then I suppose I'm in love with several people.? This book is utterly outstanding. The whole trilogy is. Just totally, absolutely wrecking and mindblowing. It's two years ago that I read The Girl Who Played with Fire, probabl...
My Rating: 4.2/5 RTC ...
The third and final volume in the series, more like part two of The Girl Who Played with Fire, but I am not complaining these books are brilliant, fabulous story line with wonderful and colourful characters. Lisbeth Salander is a marvellous invention by the author, a very unlikely hero...
*threateningly swings baseball bat* We might have a severe problem if I don't get my answers for why did The Girl Who Played with Fire end like that. 4.45/5 ? As with the previous two books, this one was something that just kept my heart beating madly in my chest! In the ...
