Hi !
I read "The Millenium" trilogy earlier this year and noticed swedes do drink coffee all day long.
The books are a major success over here (France).
How about you ? Have you read it ? If so, did you like it ?

Hello there! How funny you started this thread just to ask me that ;) And I thought you were mocking Sweden for being a boring country in the other thread, I became very defensive and ready to defend our country! :D haha now I know what you're talking about!
...But I'm kind of lost, "The Millenium"-triology, what's that?
I must admit I'm not much of a reader :S
But to your other "question"; yeah we do drink a lot of coffee in Sweden, now that you're mentioning it!
I guess we're kind of sleepy and need a lot caffeine to be able to live normal lives ;) |

Sweden used to be one of fav country as a teenager because of the handsome tennis players like Bjon Borg, Mats Wilander and Stephan Edberg.
I had a "Mats Wilander" wall in my bedroom just by my desk and i'd look at it for inspiration while doing school homework.
LOL |

The 1st book was translated "The men who hated women" (in french obviously) and i don't understand why the book in english has a different title. |
