On 17 October, I presented «O Naipe em Falta» at FNAC in Fórum Coimbra. It was an afternoon full of surprises.

My thanks to my dear Fátima Rosado, one of the first readers of my manuscripts, for her beautiful words and for bringing added depth to the conversation.

Thank you also to Luís and Gonçalo for the photographs, and to everyone who joined us. A special thank you to my mother, to whom this book is dedicated.

My thanks to FNAC and Idioteque for organising the event and for such a warm welcome.

 
 
 

“Hotel La Solitude” was one of three books selected for secondary school students to read in the Braga municipal round of the 2025/2026 Cávado Intermunicipal Reading Competition.

Knowing that a book finds readers is always special. Knowing that it reaches young readers through an initiative dedicated to reading and literature means even more to me.

My thanks to the Braga Libraries Network for choosing the book and, above all, to all the students who read “Hotel La Solitude”.

On 9 October, I presented «O Naipe em Falta» at Chaves Municipal Library. Here are a few photographs from that afternoon of conversation and connection around the book.


My thanks to Maria Isabel Viçoso for the conversation, her warmth and friendship. Thank you also to everyone who attended and to Dr Vítor for making us so welcome.
