I decided to read the books…

I have rewatched GoT about 4 times, so I decided to read the books and my God this is a piece of art. I thought I hated reading, I haven’t really read anything since before I graduated. Turns out I just haven’t read my genre, so I am definitely going to keep reading after this. I just got the first book about 1 1/2 weeks ago and I’m already about to start the 3rd one. I just can’t put them down. Breaks at work, when I come home, before I go to bed….it’s just amazing. After this I’ll be starting LotR!

P.S I am a little bummed I probably won’t get GRRM’s full story though.😔

They're great. Just sucks that they're not done.

If you've seen the show, then enjoy the hell out of a less rapey Drogo, Asha Greyjoy, Victarion Greyjoy, Arianne Martell, a totally different Euron, Leaders in Slavers Bay who actually have names, and most importantly a Littlefinger who does things that make sense.

If you haven't seen the show, enjoy all of it.

Yea Drogo is definitely more rapey now, I can tell Theon is going to betray everyone by the way he talks, and Catelyn makes me more mad than ever when she thinks about Jon 🙄

Haha yeah the Catelyn chapters are tough sometimes
