The Millennium Trilogy
The Millennium Trilogy | Stieg Larsson
Discover the books that changed the way the world reads crime. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo: Forty years ago, Harriet Vanger disappeared from a family gathering on the island owned by the powerful Vanger clan. Her uncle employs disgraced journalist Mikael Blomkvist and tattooed hacker Lisbeth Salander to investigate. When the pair link Harriet's disappearance to a number of grotesque murders, they begin to unravel a dark family history... The Girl Who Played With Fire: Lisbeth Salander is now a wanted woman, on the run from the police. Mikael Blomkvist, editor-in-chief of Millennium magazine, is trying to prove her innocence. Yet Salander is more avenging angel than helpless victim. She may be an expert at staying out of sight - but she has ways of tracking down her most elusive enemies. The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest: Salander is plotting her final revenge - against the man who tried to kill her, and against the government institutions that very nearly destroyed her life. With the help of journalist Mikael Blomkvist and his researchers at Millennium magazine, Salander is ready to fight to the end.

I have only read the first book in Larsson's trilogy, but from what I recall Lisbeth Salander's #boots were not in the books but added during the movie. Still iconic IMO. #GratefulHarvest @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Eggs

Jeannineth Definitely on my list of top fictional characters . 2y
Scochrane26 You should read the next 2 books. Lisbeth is a great character. 2y
vivastory @Jeannineth She's great. I've been thinking of rewatching the movies 2y

Day 7 - #strongheroine #31bookpics

Lisbeth Salander
Salander first appeared in the 2005 novel The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (original Swedish title, Män som hatar kvinnor, literally "Men who hate women" in English). She reappeared in its sequels: The Girl Who Played with Fire (2006), The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest (2007), The Girl in the Spider's Web (2015), and The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye (2017).

This trilogy made the strongest impression on me! Reading books, I felt different emotions: interest, indignation, pride, anger ... And I wasn't indifferent! For me it's the most important thing in reading books! I also love the Swedish movie adaptation of books!💻🐉

This was one of my favorite trilogies that I've ever read. I read it a few months ago so it isn't a very recent read but I highly highly recommend it. The setting was rich but not overly descriptive. The characters were raw but also evolved over the course of the book. I found lisbeth sanders to be one of the most relatable people I've ever read about or met in person to be honest with her various quirks.

By far my go-to best series. Could barely keep these out of my hands. Not for the feint of heart. Very sensitive content, hard to read through some of it with all the detail. I felt as if I was feeling her pain, revenge, as if I were her.
Very heartbreaking that Steig Larsson had passed in 2004. He had plans to make 10 or so more. Only 3 were made. I would love to find more of this type. If anyone has any recommendations please holla.

#RiotGram I know, Hello Captain Obvious but honestly who is a better #BadAssHeroine than Lisbeth Salander?!?

shawnmooney Lol. "Captain Obvious"! My best friend uses it, the only person I know who uses it, and I used it today for the first time ever on Litsy. And now I see your post.??? 7y
Cinfhen @shawnmooney I haven't used that expression in awhile, and I did notice your post this morning, so it must have been on my mind. Your posts have seeped into my brain flow 😘 (edited) 7y

Reviewsbylola I found the first book a little slower to get into. So maybe keep that in mind. This is one of the best series I have ever read though. 7y

Throwback to when we could read outside, and it was sunny and warm. Although I love the fall and curling up under a blanket🍁
The Millenium trilogy is one of the best I've read, it was really interesting and intriguing and Lisbeth is one of my all-time favorite characters, not just females characters but characters. Period. She is very complex and unusual but so intelligent and you can't not love her😄

I don't read a lot of mysteries or thrillers. I don't know why because when I do, I really enjoy them! One of my favorites is the Millennium Trilogy. #funfridayphoto

I'm counting this as a bonus #girlcrush because Lisbeth Salander is a brilliant, beautiful badass! #octphotochallenge

[DELETED] 2232195534 I love these books! Love them! 7y
britt_brooke @kaysreadinglife They're so good! Have you read the fourth book written by that other author? I haven't yet. I'm not sure if I want to. 7y

On Monday I reviewed the latest Lisbeth Salander book, so for #TBT I thought I'd talk about the original trilogy. I love these books! The first one is a great family generational murder mystery, the second is an exciting fugitive on the run story, and the third is a political/courtroom thriller!
