So many books and so little time to read them all. It's daunting to see so many promising books and even more being published every day. Hopefully our book reviews can help you decide what books you want to read next.

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest by Stieg Larsson


Wow. at least the last book in this series did not focus a lot on sex and rape. Yes, there was still murder, but nothing brutal or horrendous to read. This last book deals with Lisbeth recovering and getting ready for her trial for the attempted murder of her father. You also have Mikeal's group of reporters, security people, and police working together to prove Lisbeth's innocence and the real story of what happened with her and her father. The last group you are introduced to is the Section, the original people who determined what happened to Lisbeth and helped cover-up her fathers crimes. This government group of people were originally set up with good intentions, but they all get back together this book corrupted and murdering their own group members as well as planning the murder of others in order to hopefully cover up this whole story and lock Lisbeth up in a mental institution for life this time.

I am glad to be done with these books and do not plan on ever reading them again. There are so many people who raved about these and want everyone to read them. I disagree with their opinion and did not really enjoy reading these. I found them disturbing and not really enjoyable to read. I guess the story is original and different than most, but it is so corrupted and deals with all the evil that can happed in the world. Yes, I suppose it is good to read in order to open my mind and educate myself a little more, but it is not something I really enjoyed.
