    I'm about 100 pages into the first one and I keep falling asleep while reading it. It doesn't help that I don't start reading until after I should already be in bed, but I like what I've read so far.

    It takes a while to get into the first one and I hear the 3rd one is like that too...keep at it Karen!! There is a lot of ground work to build the characters and the story :)

    Another one I have never heard of. I love hearing of new books that people love. I still want to read the Hunger games, but after that I am going to check these out!

    I am listening to The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo on audiobook at the moment! It's my first audiobook (I listen while I am walking the dog and designing) so it's taken me a little while to get used to it but I am really enjoying it now! I should finish listening to it today, and I have the next one all lined up ready to go as well!!

    I bought The Girl while I was finishing up Hunger Games; I think it will be the next book I read (after One Day)

    I just bought them all at Costco because my sil highly recommended them. I have about 6 books that I have to read first though. I can't wait to start them though!

    i've heard mixed reviews.
    i'm afraid it might be a little dark for me.
    so i canceled my request from the library.

    Liked the 1st one. 2nd was OK (I was greatly irritated at how the book ended). 3rd was a bit tedious IMO.

    Oh yes!! :beat
    I bought the first 2 this summer and read them cover to cover! Couldn't put them down! I'm waiting for the 3rd to come out in paperback so I can read that too!

    So my sister read it and said it gave her nightmares LOL! I mean she loved it but still, it freaked her out. I hate scary movies soooo I'm not too sure I would like this book, I'm kind of on the fence! I'm kind of a baby! :blush

    The weird thing is that I really liked Stephen King as a teenager but for some reason I've lost my nerve as an adult! ha!
