The Girl Who Played with Fire: A Lisbeth Salander Novel

I clicked the "Free Sample" to see how it would look/read. It's now telling me I downloaded it and it's in my Books app. I'm worried it's going to charge me. What is going on? If clicking free sample is exactly the same as buying the book, that might be a good thing to mention. I'm very angry. I didn't even really want to read this book, was just using it as an example to see how the books would look on my phone and now there's the possibility of being charged because I clicked "FREE sample." Please answer!

After reading "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" I was reluctant to read the sequel. Why? I did not want to be disappointed. Well, safe to say now, I had nothing to worry about. While tone & texture of follow up is very different, Larsson continues to deliver quirky characters who capture our imaginations. And then Salander, our ballsy female protagonist emerges as the most unlikely anti-hero we've met in quite some time. A thoroughly enjoyable read.

Read in January 2011, while suffering from a cold. I thought this the weakest of the trilogy, but I still gobbled it up. It's an uncharitable thought, but if Larsson wasn't dead, I don't think I would have finished the trilogy. These aren't characters you'd want to spend that much more time with. It also would've been nice to have included at least one sympathetic female character who didn't fall into bed with Blomkvist.
