Joana, de novo!Joana, again!

Só quando a Joana ergueu o rosto e olhou para mim é que a reconheci. Já a tinha fotografado antes, havia mais  de um ano, também ali, no jardim da Cordoaria. A Joana continua a ler livros em inglês e desta vez a escolha recaiu sobre George R. R. Martin e as suas famosíssimas Crónicas de Gelo e Fogo. Contou-me que conhece imensa gente que leu a saga e que ficou completamente viciada, daí ter decidido experimentar também. "Game of Thrones - Vol. I" era a sua primeira incursão na obra deste autor bestseller e a aposta valera a pena: sentia-se completamente seduzida pelo enredo e pelos personagens e estava segura de que iria ler os outros nove volumes.

I only recognized Joana when she lifted up her face and looked at me. I had taken her picture before, more than a year ago, also there, at Cordoaria's garden. Joana keeps reading books in English and this time her choice fell on George R. R. Martin and his famous A Song of Ice and Fire. She told me that she knows a lot of people who read the saga and got completely addicted, so she also decided to give it a shot. "Game of Thrones - Vol. 1" was her first incursion in the work of this bestselling author and the bet was worthwhile: she felt completely seduced by the plot and by the characters and she was sure that she would read the other nine volumes.
