As I hoped, last night turned out to be a very quiet night for me. David and I ordered in food, I played some records and overall just chilled the eff out. Lykke Li performed a concert at The Wiltern last night and I *almost* went … but since I have tix to see her later in the Summer, I decided to take a night off from concerts and just relax. Inspired by the amazing new trailer for the US version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, I decided to read the original books by Stieg Larrson … finally.
Now, I just started reading so I haven’t gotten to any part of the book that is unrecognizable to be just yet (ie. different from the Swedish film version) but I understand that the Swedish films that have been made on the books are different from the original source material. I’m really curious to read the original stories … which I’ve been meaning to do for over a year now. I LOVE the Swedish films and I am really looking forward to the US films … but it is generally the case that no film can ever truly do any book justice. So … I will be spending the next few weeks with Larsson‘s words as I get hyped up for the release of the US version of Dragon Tattoo this Summer.
Tonight, I think David and I will be hanging out with our friend Emma … but I’m hoping for another quiet night. It’s June, Summer is nearly here … life is so good right now :) Happy Wednesday!
