New Book!

Okay finally! My book selection for this week is : The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson.

It is a murder mystery set in the author's homeland of Sweden. It begins with an uncle's longing to find out what really happened to his niece when she disappeared 40 years ago. Brought in on the search is a young journalist Mikal Blomkvist who has had his reputation called into question when he loses a libel suit against one of the titans of industry in Sweden. So far I am really enjoying it. I usually don't read murder mysteries (except those by Conan Doyle and Hammett), but this year I'm going to try and be more adventurous with my book selections.

You can find this book at Barnes and Noble or at your local library.
