The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsen. It is likely that I would not have read this book if it had not been a selection for my book club. I won’t write much of a review because I seem to be the last person on earth to have read it. The book has two themes—a business/finance machinations story and a murder mystery story. The murder mystery part was really good but IMHO the business/finance story dragged on. The strong points of the book to me were the well-drawn characters, each unique and clearly portrayed. I give it about 3.5 stars. I'm not planning to read the sequels.

I have to agree with your assessment, Florence.
This is one of the very few books that looked better as a movie than read as a story, and I wouldn't give the movie five stars either.
I guess it's all a matter of taste.
