Girl who Played with Fire by Denise Mina, 270 pages


This was another table top find, though I would have read it eventually anyways. While this graphic novel is not lacking for illustrated zest the story can be trying at times.


The Girl who Played with Fire continues following the life of Lisbeth Salander and Mikael Blomkvist. Mikael is continuing his bold hard-hitting journalism that got him in trouble in the first book, by going after a sex trafficking ring. Lisbeth on the other hand is being sought after by her legal guardian, a crime boss, and the police.


If you have not read the books I don't recommend reading this graphic novel. There are times where it is hard to understand exactly who the characters are. This is mainly due to nearly every male figure in the novel having blond hair and a similar looking face. This graphic novel also only skims the deeper story line that is in the actual novel.
