6. The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, by Stieg Larsson
I resisted reading this for years because it didn't look interesting to me, but my boss kept talking about this series, so I finally checked the book out of the library. For once, he was right. This is a good book. It's a good combination of mystery and thriller that kept me interested and also taught me a bit about the country my great-grandparents came from (Sweden).
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”
