Pensaba darle 4 estrellas (igual estoy siendo bastante buena) por lo del CAWPILE peeeero esas escenas super sexuales de Danny mmmm no.

Mi mayor miedo cuando comencé este libro fue que iba a ser demasiado, por como pintan a George y toda la saga, que no iba a entenderlo, etc. La verdad es que... no lo es, es súper sencillo. Puedes perderte es con los nombres y los árboles genealógicos.

Siento que en este primer libro la fantasía está menos presente de lo que, posiblemente, va a estar más adelante.

Danny es mi personaje favorito pero leerla también es un dolor porque, mientras a Catelyn y Ned le dan escenas tipo <estaban desnudos porque esa noche habían hecho el amor, a Danny (que es una NIÑA) le ponen escena muuuuuy explícitas. Sé que van a poner de excusa que es porque es por los dothraki pero lo lamento, esa no es excusa suficiente para que la única persona que tiene escenas sexuales explícitas en el libro sea una niña de 13/14 años🤢🤮 Igual estoy orgullosa de ella por todo lo que logró.

Entiendo que para algunos Ned sea su personaje favorito pero, la razón por la que me costó leerlo en dos meses fue porque en enero llegué a una parte donde sus pov's están muy presentes y 💤

Sansa se merece mis disculpas públicas, cuando ví la serie no me caía pero leyéndola me duele😞

La amistad de Jon y Sam 🔝

En fin, lo disfruté y otras veces se me hizo eterno, dependía del pov.
