Ana Pessoa, Bernardo P. Carvalho - O Caderno Vermelho da Rapariga Karateca

N is not a girl — she’s a karateka. N is 14, almost 15, and her biggest dream is to become a black belt and kiss Raul.

N likes to write, but she’d rather fight Raul. (Writing is boring.) This is not a diary. It has no lock, no secrets. (Okay, it does have secrets.) It also has a will of its own, shifting pages, words like “diarrhea” and “romantic,” and characters like the wicked witch who wants to learn how to be good, and the fly that didn’t know who it was. This is the red notebook of the karate girl. N’s favorite object, a pet, a character, a real person. (What is the truth?)
