Only watched the first two parts as films, and again, the swedish folks is god dammit good at writing those stories.

the books were excellent, I had a friend who couldn't wait and would order them from the UK a year early. The movies are ok but really unnecessary, I really didn't feel it was needed to show the violent rape scene in such detail for such a long period of time, but with the Hollywood remake they get to show the rape scene all over again.
I read the Man from Beijing by Henning Mankel recently, another Swedish mystery writer, that was enjoyable. As you might expect, I don't think its too far fetched that Laarson was executed. |

I came in here to say I'm not going to voice my opinion and ruin everybody's fun.
