Book Review: A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin

For February's book selection, I chose to read a book that my mother likes, A Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin.

Summary: The book follows the live and politics of the great families of Westoros. It must be noted that if you thought this was a historical fiction,you would be wrong. I have seen some people try to say it is historical fiction but it is quite obvious that it is not. There is amazing power struggles and intrigue within the relationships of the families. I do not want to give too much away because this is a popular series with new viewers everyday.

My opinion: The television series follows the book quite closely. At first, I thought I was going to be a Danny fanatic but it turns out I am a Tyrin follower. I will have to say that after reading the first book, I binged on the television series and cannot wait for the next season to come out.

This was my second monthly book challenge. I would not read this series on my own. However, Martin's writing is captivating and held my interest. I was fascinated and I am planning the other books but have finished season 4 of the television series.  Normally, I would not read this genre but I do not regret it. If you have not read this series, I would highly recommend it.

Happy Reading!
