The Girl Who Played With Fire 1

When you open the book you really have no clue of what is going to happen in this second part, first we have the prologue. The prologue is not really long so is not tired to read, it starts really fast, from the first sentence you are trapped in the book, we have a mysterious image of a girl tied to a bed in a dark room imagining how she is pouring a car with gasolin and lit it up with a match till it bust in flames (with a man inside).

            She ran to the car, poured the gasoline through the window, and lit a match. It took only a moment. The flames blazed up. 

I really loved this kind of start because it is sort of perverse but it gets fast to the point. even though it is a little confusing because you don't know anything about whi is that girl, or why is she trapped in that dark room, but it is just like the book before: first you'll get really confused but with the advance of the book all your questions are responded; is kind of making a big knot and little by little untangle it. 

Chapter 1 is a little bit slow at the begining, Larsson starts talking about how is Lisbeth's life going on now but he gives s many details that i think he makes it a little bit tired to read. but after a few pages you start to get more interested about it, specially when he starts talking about how Mikael Blomkvist went to Salander's apartment and she says she doesn't want to know anything about him anymore.

            She turned and said in a low voice: "Get out of here. I don't want to see you ever again. "
