I've been a huge fan of Game of Thrones the TV Series on HBO since the first season, I used to sit with my mom every saturday night just to watch it.
And now they just completed the third season of Game of Thrones Series. Actually, I already wanted to read the book since the first time I watched the series. but, sadly at that time, 2011, Gramedia (the Huge local Bookstore in jakarta) didn't have the series books. So, when I went to Periplus, like a 7 or 8-week ago, just for wandering around, I found this novel (Finally!)
why I didn't look to Periplus all these times! Obviously, Periplus must have had this for ages, because it's a bookstore for imported books! Damn it!
okay, back to the book!
Need a month for me to complete reading it, it's not normal for me to complete it until a month, but I had final exam weeks in between, that's why I had to stop it and then continue and soooo on. So, I can tell I totally hate Sansa Stark, in this book I feel attracted by Tyrion Lannister, I know. But, truly love him with a whole jar of hearts! In this book, not just the dialog between the characters but I loved imagining the emotion, the atmosphere, the sadness, the silly moment and of course the road, the wood, everything. it drowned me deeply on every perspective of each character. And honestly, Kinda pissed with the mother of dragon with her thoughts before she became such a strong character like now. she kept murmuring and being afraid of everything. I hate that! but, I love Dany though. By the way, It's a great book after all. great story, quite fascinating problem over Westeros haha. What I really like about this Game of Thrones thing, In this story telling, you would find a simple everyday act that reflect ourselves, I mean, When you read it you'll see none of those people are evil or even have pure hearts. we don't know who's the bad or maybe the good guy. They just keep struggling and doing war to keep them alive. to die in honor. like Littlefinger, we never know what exactly the game has he played. that's just in my opinion. we all have different perspective and taste about everything LOL.
After a month, reading this book with final exam weeks in between for more than 2 weeks, this is how the book appears. I ruined this book so bad, because I carried it on my bag everywhere I go, I slept with this book, even a short time like taking a shit (ups, sorry) in bathroom I used to take it with me! Oh my god.
Recently, I've been reading the second book "The Clash of The Kings". I'll write the book review after I finish it, 'kay?
Happy Reading Everyone! Me love ya!
