Review of 'Uomini che odiano le donne' on 'Goodreads'

L'inizio della saga in cui vengono tracciate le tappe del giornalismo d'inchiesta, il tempo e le ricerche - non sempre con giusta etica. L'intreccio con sindrome/hacker forse troppo usata, con un personaggio con cui si può non andare d'accordo ma é una sfaccettatura di come il mondo può ridurre un essere umano. Mikael ricorda Morck della saga di Adler-Olsen con l'aggiunta della libertà nella vita privata, devo dire ne sono rimasta stupita anche se, personalmente, non trovo particolare interesse nella parte sessuale molto vasta. Anche questo primo caso ricorda La donna in gabbia (Adler-Olsen) senza essere un punto a sfavore tanto quanto Lisbeth con Rose.

I spent 4 hours finishing the book, then I went for a run.

The first half captured me, the second half was…insane. I picked an intense read for my first fiction book in years. When I finished, all I could do was grab my running shoes and go for a run, even though I already ran in the morning. It was a lot to process, and I needed the run to work through it.

Heavy, dark, insightful, scary, and beautiful. So happy I read it. And the broad theme of violence (and hatred) towards women is beautifully crafted into the story.
