2019: So here’s the deal: this was a better story/mystery than book #4, but I’m still frustrated that Lisbeth & Mikael are not working on solving problems together! I also felt like I spent a lot of this book reading information that I already knew as it was passed between different characters and that is BORING. I was confused as to why I was following two different mysteries that never seemed to overlap, and I was also frustrated that Mikael was finding out all of this info about Lisbeth’s life without her. Like, let the lady learn about her own past and be in charge of her own story. Also it needed 85% more Erika Berger. The end.
