If you’re at all sensitive to graphic/violent sexual descriptions I wouldn’t recommend The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. I regretted reading that book and I didn’t make it very far into the second one. Not long after I decided to stop reading books like that at all. Mostly faith based reasons but also I just can’t stomach it..
