    Great choice! Simply type the title, "The Girl Who Played with Fire" into the search box of the online catalog, and you will see the current standing of this book. Unfortunately, at this time the book is checked out, but check back in a week or so. It is worth the wait! Also, the AF notation stands for Adult Fiction, and it will be shelved according to the last three letters of the author's last name-Lar.
