Stieg Larsson's The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo rocketed up the book lists, and the library copies are in steady demand. If you've already read it, you'll know why. If you haven't already read it, get it on your reading list. Be sure you've got a bit of time available, because you're not going to want to put it down.
Prior to his sudden death of a heart attack in November 2004 Stieg, a Swedish writer and Journalist, finished three detective novels in his trilogy "The Millenium-series" which were published posthumously; "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo", "The Girl Who Played With Fire" and "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest". Altogether, his trilogy has sold more than 12 million copies worldwide (summer of 2009), and he was the second bestselling author in the world 2008.
Not all these books are available yet in North America, but while Peggy was on holiday in Ireland, she was able to scoop up copies. Which, if you speak to her nicely, you too can borrow from the library. But only after Peggy reads them!
