The Millennium Trilogy

About three years ago, I read and subsequently became insanely obsessed with the book The DaVinci Code. I was so haunted by the story that I ended up taking a solo trip to Paris with the sole objective of retracing the paths Sophie Neveu & Robert Langdon took. Well, I'm exaggerating a bit... I did have some other stuff to take care of but it was, for the most part, The DaVinci Code that brought me to Paris. My first time to Paris... and my first time in Europe. Yeah, it was very special, indeed. This summer, my boss introduced me to a book called The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and guess what? I became totally & insanely obsessed with the story. So much so, in fact, that I finished reading the remaining two books in the series, The Girl Who Played With Fire & The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet's Nest, in no time at all! Well, here's my dilemma now: I will be restless and trapped in some sort of a fiction purgartory until the day I come to Stockholm. I'm feeling a familiar urge to retrace the paths Lisbeth Salander & Mikael Blomkvist took. I wonder if The Millennium Trilogy would bring me to Sweden...
