I wanted to start this series because I loved the world that the show made, surprise surprise the world is so much more detailed and interesting. The series is all about characters and curiosity simply drives me to see how different the characters are, I have already spotted how body language is quite different and seeing each person’s perspective it really makes me rethink. Thanks to reading the book, I find it better since it gives more depth to the characters. I personally don’t like the ways that characters like Tyrion and Bran and any disabled person is described, Plus I know that it’s no surprise that the way people are described and talked about is like hot potato between characters.
