    A Game of Thrones

    Thought i'd start a new thread as i don't want to spoil the TV show for those who haven't read the books

    Good idea I find I have bits where I can't put it down but other bits seem to drag on a bit. Makes it hard when you need to sleep lol!

    Yep i feel that way as well.
    Book 3 Part 1 was like that for me, but part 2 seems more action packed & i want to find out what happens with Tyrion now.
    Upto the part where he is on Trail....

    I feel so bad forr poor Arya, she is one of my fav characters in the books.

    I know poor Arya. Poor girl just can't catch a break. *spoiler* At least she's not dead yet lol! She's one of my favourites too.
    I won't let on what happens with Tyrion since you are reading it ATM. I'm glad he treated Sansa nicely. It's a pleasant change. I have to wonder where the author comes up with some of his ideas. Some of it just seems so cruel & just plain wrong - marrying off children for one thing.

    I'm glad as well, especially since Joff was so nasty to her.

    I know what you mean it can be a bit much some times, like the Red Wedding, what they did afterwards was just cruel.
    They whole thing with Lolly, even tho she isn't a big part of the book, i felt so sorry for her.
    Just the general rapes & killing, Like the Tickler or the Mountain......

    I ordered my kindle from Amazon on Monday last week & got it on Thursday! I couldn't believe how quick it was. I haven't used it yet as it will be my birthday present so I have over a month still to wait

    I also just bought the DVD's of Game of Thrones off ebay so I can watch that.

    Less than 100 pages of book 5 left to read. I was so tempted to finish it last night but I was just way too exhausted. I could barely keep my eyes open. Damn sick kids messing up my "me" time. No idea what is going on with Arya. That is just weird.

    Did you buy book 5 yet Cheshire?

    Everytime i read the book all i can think of is Reek, Reek rhymes with Meek etc..
    I'm slowly getting through the book about 300 pages in now.

    I'm so excited to have GoT back on TV, The first ep was really good, i couldn't watch the ending tho

    Is it on pay tv? I bought the dvd's so I'm hoping to watch it soon. I can't until my birthday. only 3.5 weeks to go!

    Cheshire, it funny you say that about Reek because I keep thinking about that too even though I finished it a couple weeks ago now. Occasionally I even think it about other short names too lol!
