I bought this book for Joel for Christmas about two years ago after hearing a story on the radio about it being published posthumously. It's only been in the last few months or so that I've seen it EVERYWHERE. Seriously everywhere I looked people were reading this book. Finally my friend Ashley invited me to read it for a book club, and that's the push I needed.
I really liked it. Compelling mystery, intriguing characters, and enough twists and turns to keep me guessing. I was almost turned off at the beginning with the financial talk, but Ashley assured me I had gotten enough out of the part I was sure was way over my head. Joel also advised me to remember that no one in the book talks like real people really talk. Once I was on board with that and got used to the Swedish references it went really quickly. It was high on shock value and I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the Millennium trilogy.
