Män som hatar kvinnor

So, with Great Wyrms still on my mind, I have decided to read "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" next.
I like to stick with the theme and I think this one offers some good Feng Shui.

I read somewhere that, with the advent of the Kindle, there has been a rise in the number of low brow, 'pulp fiction', style books being bought. With a kindle no one needs to know what you are reading (unless you paste the information all over the kitchen walls).
In the olde days, the world was full of people who wanted to read the Da Vinci Code, but were too embarrassed to be seen with it on the train, so they read Focault's Pendulum instead.
Nowadays, when you see someone with an eReader, they could be engrossed in anything from Principia Mathematica to Mrs Stevens Hears The Mermaids Singing.


I have been dimly aware of the girl with the dragon tattoo, for some time. I had it marked down as chick lit (mainly, I think, because of the cover art) but a number of friends have raved about it, claiming it has great character development and multiple layers. And now it's a film.

So, anyway, I thought I'd give it a go.
I'm about a third of the way through and generally enjoying it - although I can't say I really see what all the fuss is about. Still, it's nice to read a crime novel for a change.
