To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare, woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, she has endured a tumultuous year of temptation, loss, and strife to reach the ultimate turning point.

About three things I was certain. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him, and I didn't know how dominant that part might be, that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.

Surprised at how much I loved this book

After I saw all the films, I decided to listen to all the books.
This being the first one, I was (still am) completely hooked.
This was spell binding, fascinating and hard to put down.
I love this book. I cannot recommend this enough.

Diana Gabaldon's fans will be delighted to find Jamie and Claire as spirited and endearing as ever in this fourth installment of this magnificent saga. Twice Claire has used an ancient stone circle to travel back to the 18th century. The first time she found love with a Scottish warrior but had to return to the 1940s to save their unborn child. The second time she reunited with her lost love but had to leave behind the daughter that he would never see. Now Brianna, from her 1960s vantage point, has found a disturbing obituary and will risk everything in an attempt to change history.

I did not realize that this was book #5, in a series of 7. I found this out near the end of the story.
Despite this fact, I really enjoyed listening to this THE FIERY CROSS.

Lisbeth Salander—the heart of Larsson’s two previous novels—lies in critical condition, a bullet wound to her head, in the intensive care unit of a Swedish city hospital. She’s fighting for her life in more ways than one: if and when she recovers, she’ll be taken back to Stockholm to stand trial for three murders. With the help of her friend, journalist Mikael Blomkvist, she will not only have to prove her innocence, but also identify and denounce those in authority.

If you could sum up The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest in three words, what would they be?
greatest story telling
What about Simon Vance’s performance did you like?
Very compelling voice and great story telling ability
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I was on
Any additional comments?
I enjoyed the depth of character development, historical perspectives and narratives, the continuing theme of cultural identity of women, and the story is supremely brilliant.
I am just unhappy that there is not going to be a 4th book.
