The Girl Who Played With Fire


"The title kinda remind me of Drew Barrymore movie 'Firestarter' but this book is nothing like the movie and its on a whole different track altogether..."

Title: The Girl Who Played With Fire
Author: Stieg Larson (dead and famous)
Genre: Suspense thriller, Investigative, Smut, Drama.

What I like about the second book is that the author justified Lisbeth Salander existence. It's all about her history and her character development from the last. Her sorta subdued and keep-to-herself attitude changed to a more approachable and I slightly sense some warmer feelings towards her character than before. She got herself new boobs (bigger), a new apartment and many more things.

The plot heightens when she was wrongly accused for a triple homicide at two different locations. The Detectives are pretty one sided in their investigation and shift all the blames on Gothic, punk-ish and social retard Lisbeth Salander. It got interesting when the mystery slowly (painfully) unfold and Lisbeth who was supposed to be innocent was actually closely related to the Murder cases which may caused her problem later on. The story ended in a total cliffhanger, it left Lisbeth half dead in a hospital.

"No spoiler, Lisbeth still kicked ass, new taste in sex, ignored Mikael Blomkvist (applaud), faced her nightmare and in coma..."
