[size=13pt]<sup>Finishing this book was like finishing the last book in the Harry Potter series--I was devastated knowing there will be no more!

Stieg Larsson did such an incredible job of wrapping up the first two books in the series with this one. It was 602 pages of incredible "can't get enough of these great characters" good stuff.

The first two books each had their own journalism adventure/theme. This book takes all the loose ends in the first two books, continuing where the second book left off (quite a cliffhanger!), and ties them all up in a neat little package. Other than a little too much boring "meat" in the middle about the structure of the Swedish government and the Secret Police, Hornet's Nest is extremely well-written, as well as exciting. No guilt!



Lisbeth Salander has got to be one of the most awesome heroines in modern literature--she is so incredibly invincible. Mikael Blomvkist is also someone I could not get enough of. I can't wait to see who plays these two in the movies! (I have no word on this--just crossing my fingers that there will someday be movies!</sup> [/size]

Dracula by Dacre Stoker and Ian Holt

This might sound stupid but is Dacre Stoker related to Bram Stoker?

Ok, I hope that dude that told me there's nothing like a stupid question is right

^^ from wikipedia, trust at your peril

Because of the Stokers' frustrating history with Dracula's copyright, a great-grandnephew of Bram Stoker, novelist Dacre Stoker, with encouragement from screenwriter Ian Holt, decided to write "a sequel that bore the Stoker name" to "reestabish creative control over" the original novel. In 2009, Dracula: The Un-Dead was released, written by Dacre Stoker and Ian Holt. Both writers "based on Bram Stoker's own handwritten notes for characters and plot threads excised from the original edition" as well as their own research for the sequel.

Lol. I think I'll trust this. What a coup though. Did it work?

I've just written my thoughts about this man on my blog, please visit. http://fabulositynouveau..com/2011/02/i-love-neil-gaiman.html

If ou enjoy fantasy, thriller, mythology, spirituality and a dark imagination, you will join the cult. This is the most awe inspiring writer I have ever encountered.

I usually read more than one book at the same time.My current read include The last convertible by Anton Myrer which is beautiful youth novel and The cracker factory which is a good story.I strongly recommend the former for all lovers of romance and adventure.

Guys you have really been missing. This book just came out by a Nigerian, it's titled 'Times of the Supermen' by Tope Apoola. The first real Nigerian science fiction. Men, it's explosive. It's 450 pages is captivating from the beginning to the end. The book portrays a futuristic world in which strange signs appear on mars and astronauts were sent to investigate. If you love intellectual stuff, this is just what you need. I am saying this because the guys is not yet a popular writer and the book is great. it was published in the U.S.
