Plot summary
Lisbeth Salander is wanted for a triple murder. All three victims are connected to a trafficking exposé about to be published in Mikael Blomqvist’s magazine Millenium, and Lisbeth’s fingerprints are on the weapon.
Lisbeth vanishes to avoid capture by the justice. Mikael, not believing the police, is despairingly trying to clear her name, using all his resources and the staff of his magazine. During this process, Mikael discovers Lisbeth’s past, a terrible story of abuse and traumatizing experiences growing up in the Swedish care system.
When he eventually finds her, it’s only to discover that she is far more entangled in his initial investigation of the sex industry than he could ever imagine.

I am hooked! Loved Girl with the Dragon Tatoo but The Girl Who Played with Fire is awesome. Almost finished. Can't stop listening to the audiobook.

The book didn't end until the first few chapters of the third book.
With apprehension, I suspended my natural inclination towards disbelief for the first book and most of the second, but when Lisbeth, while standing in a forest, suddenly understands the proof for Fermat's Theoram, I had to draw the line.
While the characters are interesting and have depth, the translation makes the prose come across as low grade fan fiction.

I am reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo......I am so glad it is a trilogy because I would hate for it to end with just one book!

I just couln't get enough of The Girl who played with Fire, it was really a great book! I can also say this about the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, which I also saw the movie. I am looking forward to reading The Girl who Kicked the Hornets Nest!!
The books were so hard to put down and when I was nearing the ending I didn't wan to book to end.

Liked the 1st and 3rd, too much useless sex in 2nd. Stick to thriller. bordered on usless sex too in 1st novel. We get she was messed up, but most wild young girls sleep with young men, sorry old men its true.
