3.5/5: I believe this was an important story to be told. I however did not like a few things about it. The starting at the end and counting backwards in the storyline was a bit difficult to get use to. I also felt as though she tried to write 2 different books and mashed them together, all the intertwining of lives seemed like a second story in the making. I don't like how unfinished the book was left. There were many questions I was left with not life pondering questions just unfinished story line because we wrote too much sub-plot.

Leah Lopez (7 KP) rated The Psychology of the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo: Understanding Lisbeth Salander and Stieg Larsson's Millennium Trilogy in Books

When I saw this on a library shelf I felt a warmth sensation filling me up inside.
I have, since the very first read of the The millennium Trilogy, been continuously involved in learning further about the books, the characters and of course, Steig himself.

However, when it came to reading this book it seemed to pinpoint on a section and then repeating its meaning with large words that over-powered one another.

I love psychology and I love the trilogy and anything belonging to this.

However, I didn't find it as fascinating as I hoped to have had.

The way the books show cases the duality of human nature (0 more)

Everyone knows the basics of this story. In my opinion it is worth reading this story your self as although is it is only a short story there is a lot insight in human nature and it's duality. Once I had finished this book it left me think more about the duality of our nature.

This book's was written in the 1880's but it is well worth the read I would not recommend it for younger read as they may not have the patience with a book of this age
