Coming Soon: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

Alright, alright! I know that some of you loyal followers out there (I'm looking at you, Sarah) are insisting that my BOW reading list has been a little heavy of late. Not to fear! Thankfully, the wonderful Mom Squad recently shipped yours truly a dynamite care package including Hannaford honey mustard (btdubs, in case you didn't know this is the very best mustard in the entire universe, bar none--just ask my man V., who would be totally happy bathing in it), New York bridal magazines, and--drum roll please--next week's Book of the Week: Stieg Larsson's bestselling The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo!

I know that plenty of you out there have already read this posthumously-published Swedish mystery, so I look forward to hearing ya'll weigh in two weekends from now! And if you have been planning on taking it on, well then now's the time! I have been a little hesitant about taking TGWTDT on for two primary reasons: first and foremost, it is longer than the usual BOW, but the moms has assured me it is riveting and straightforward enough that I should be able to power through and meet the deadline; secondly, it is the first of a trilogy, and I know that if this book is as compelling as everyone suggests, I'll want to read them all! But we'll just tackle that book bridge when we come to it, right?
