Which ones have you read?
Everyone in our club has read 2 & 3 since they were club choices. I plan on reading Akpan's short story collection soon...yes, I still jump on the Oprah bandwagon. I already own a copy of The Art of Racing in the Rain...hopefully I'll get to it before the end of the year. I've heard really good things about that one. Don't know much about #4; has anyone read it? Here's the synopsis:
Forty years ago, Harriet Vanger disappeared from a family gathering on the island owned and inhabited by the powerful Vanger clan. Her body was never found, yet her uncle is convinced it was murder - and that the killer is a member of his own tightly knit but dysfunctional family. He employs disgraced financial journalist Mikael Blomkvist and the tattooed, truculent computer hacker Lisbeth Salander to investigate. When the pair link Harriet's disappearance to a number of grotesque murders from forty years ago, they begin to unravel a dark and appalling family history. But the Vangers are a secretive clan, and Blomkvist and Salander are about to find out just how far they are prepared to go to protect themselves.
