A Game of Thrones

101. Ask 5 friends to suggest one book, and read them all. (1/5)

I can’t recall how many times my brother told me to read this book and I always answered him that it was huge and I didn’t feel in the mood to read that kind of book. I must add that I had never seen the TV adaptation; I wanted to read the book first.

Let’s just say that I changed my mind! And all thanks to George R. R. Martin, the author of the book.

Last month it was the premiere of the second season of Game of Thrones and George R. R. Martin came to Portugal for the premiere and a Q&A. I think there was an autograph’s session too. Well, my brother’s a massive fan of the books and he won a contest to attend the premiere. And although I thought I’d be bored out of my mind, I went with him because he couldn’t find anyone to go with.

I’ll be honest, I enjoyed the first episode of the second season but I didn’t get most of it. There was an all other season behind that I had no idea what was about.

However the Q&A sold me. The author was so much fun that I felt like I had to read all of his books.

Conclusion: I finished reading the book today and I LOVED IT!
