So have been reading the books for the last month. I've read A Game of Thrones entirely, and am now more than halfway A Clash of Kings.

The thing I love most about these books so far is the way the chapters are divided. Showing it from 8-9 different characters 'pov' really works.

My favorite pov-characters from the first book were:

Spoiler	+
1. Daenerys Targaryen 2. Jon Snow 3. Bran Stark 4. Eddard Stark 5. Tyrion Lannister 6. Catelyn Stark 7. Arya Stark 8. Sansa Stark

My favorite pov-characters from the second book (so-far) are:

Spoiler	+
1. Jon Snow 2. Daenerys Targaryen 3. Arya Stark 4. Tyrion Lannister 5. Catelyn Stark 6. Theon Greyjoy 7. Bran Stark 8. Davos Seaworth 9. Sansa Stark

I wish that G.R.R.M had decided to do more Lannister povs, because I hear that alotta stuff happens with them, but you can never really fully appreciate it unless it's shown during someone elses pov chapter.

Favorite Story-Lines so far when put from most liked to lease liked are:

1. The Wall
2. The East
3. The Seven Kingdoms

I love all 3 of the story lines and considering 8/10 total POV characters in both books combined have been involved with The Seven Kingdoms storyline. The only characters to not have been much involved in The Seven Kingdoms storyline has been Daenerys, who has been more involved in the East. And also Jon Snow who's more involved with The Wall storyline. So I don't really fear for their lives. But as you've seen in my lists above Dany and Jon are my favorite characters in both books so far. So everytime one of thrm has a chapter I'm always very excited.

Here are my thoughts on the story-lines:

The Seven Kingdoms

+

The Seven Kingdoms: Like I said above, 8/10 total pov characters have been deeply involved with the Seven Kingdoms plot. I like it, but I can't say I get that exciting feeling like I get when Jon or Dany have a chapter, simply because TSK is used a lot. But yeah, I know it's the main focus of the story, so I definitely appreciate TSK storyline and it's always very intriguing. And always unpredictable. Which is good. Bran and Arya don't have much to do with the politics side of TSK. So I always noticed that if G.R.R.M didn't do something good with their chapters, that I quickly found it boring. But luckily I haven't had that much times. Especially with Bran having the green-dreams. And Arya being on the run. That keeps me highly interested in their characters even though they hardly have any influence on TSK plot. A few chapters ago Catelyn experienced the death of Renly Baratheon. Like, holy fuck that was unexpected. And Davos has a reason to believe it was Melisandre, with her crazy-ass 'powers'. Wouldn't know what else to call it. Tyrion is obviously the star of ACoK. He practically speaks for Joffrey, so TSK storyline always progresses the most with the Tyrion chapters. I still need to get more into Theon's character. I like it that he was the one that introduced The Iron Islands to the readers. Because I do enjoy his chapters. Has a lot to do with the fact that he's on the Iron Islands. Sansa is Sansa, can't really say much about het other that she is a suck-up that sucked up by the wrong person. I like her chapters, but I can't say I feel much for het. And it also doesn't help that she gets like 1 chapter every 200 pages. 😛

The East

+

The East: I had a hard time getting into The East storyline because it was kind of out of the blue. You suddenly got a character (Daenerys Targaryen) that had little to no influence in TSK, and also knowing that The East also wasn't included in the maps in the front of the book made it even more hard to get into the story. And to think that The East is like 4/5 of the known world. Can't believe they only use one character in that area when they have so much space. But, afterawhile I grew more and more in love with her character. And she's been way high on my list since the dragons were born. I always look forward to her chapters so much.

The Wall

+

The Wall: Definitely my most favorite story-line. All the tales that we hear during the Bran/Arya/Sansa chapters on what may be beyond the wall is brung to life everytime Jon has his own chapter. They are now traveling to The Frostfangs. But what intrigues me the most about Beyond The Wall is the creatures that they mention may exist. White Walkers, Giant White Spiders, Skinny Giants and Children of the Forest, are just a few that we've heard of so far. And also the snowy terrain makes it even better. Jon has 1 chapter every 100 pages, so his chapters are always the ones I look forward to the most.

My 3 favorite characters that don't have their own pov chapters, but actually should have, are:

Spoiler	+
1. Osha (who reminds me of Tara from TWD for some weird reason.) 2. Robb Stark 3. Petyr 'Littlefinger' Baelish.

Whoops. Thanks for reminding me...

Well, I'm still gonna watch the series and post my thoughts in here, so that atleast counts for somethin. :p

I shall call it: 'Danny's GoT/ASoIaF Experience. :)

I just read this:

'Over half of the planet that George R. R. Martin’s Song of Ice and Fire takes place on is still unexplored.'

Finished A Clash of Kings on Sunday. Way awesome! Every POV Character had an way exciting ending:

Character Closing Chapters

+

Arya Stark: She just escaped Harrenhal alongside Gendry and Hot Pie, the big question remians where she's headed next. Will she travel back to Winterfell. Will she follow Jaqen's advice to travel all the way to Braavos. Will she go to Riverrun, like she's been mentioning? So much possibilities. Bran Stark: Bran and Rickon are believed to be dead -killed by Theon Greyjoy- throughout The Seven Kingdoms. But what noone knew was that Bran and Rickon were hiding with Hodor, Osha, Jojen and Reed in the king's restplaces (don't know whatelse to call it). They found out Winterfell was destoryed by the Northsmen. That leaves Bran, Rickon, Osha, Hodor, Jojen and Reed's fate a mystery. Where will they go? Deepwood Motte, where Asha Greyjoy awaits. To another bystanding North village. Or will they be so gutsy to go down South, possibly to King's Landing? The Vale of Arryn? Or may they go North, towards The Wall. A huge question mark. Jon Snow: Was forced to kill Qhorin Halfhand to prove to the wildlings he was willing to switch allegiance. What a huge contrast, AGoT and ACoK were so focused on showing how Jon fit in with the other men on the wall, and showing his journey with them beyond the wall. But now that Jon switched his allegiance (for as far as we know) to the wildlings. Who knows what's all in store for Jon. Where/how/if will he meet Mance Rayder. What will then happen. What's Mance Rayder's next plan? Another exciting closing character chapter. Catelyn Stark: (I already read her continuation chapter in ASoS) Her story ended in ACoK that she was grabbing the sword from Brienne, to what looked like kill Jamie Lannister. Who was taken captive in AGoT. Davos Seaworth: His final chapter ended very vaguely, his ships were all destoryed during the battle at Blackwater Bay. 3 of his sons are dead. Is Davos hiding nearby King's Landing. Did he sneak in, integrating into the Flea's Bottom 'society', where he once lived. Or maybe he went back with Stannis to wherever Stannis is going. So much questions as well! Daenerys Targaryen: 2 men were following her in Qarth, Dany believed them to be 'hitmen' sended by Queen Regent AKA Lady Cersei. Later on, they revealed themselves to be sent by Magister Illyrio from Pentos, announcing plans regarding Dany's rightful place on the Iron Throne, and how she can get it back. How will it be done? How will her dragons play a role into the story. Will she finally gain the army Viserys was so desperate to recieve? Again, so much questions. Sansa Stark: Joffrey replaced Sansa as his future wife, with Lord Renly's former wife 'Margaery'. Will Sansa make her escape that Boros promised her. Will Cersei continue using Sansa as a pin in her chess game against the Starks? Again, alot of possibilities on what could happen to her. Tyrion Lannister: He was injured during the battle at Blackwater Bay. And now that he isn't the Hand of the King anymore, how will he still be able to influence descions. And why did one of Cersei's guards try and kill him during the battle at Blackwater Bay. Yet again, a lot of questions to be answered in ASoS. Theon Greyjoy: The coward that he is, took over Winterfell with a tiny army. Taking advantage of Bran Stark's disability to gain power. And in the process, disrupting the North's peace. His chapter ended that he didn't want to give Winterfell up, followed by Winterfell being attacked. With Theon Greyjoy either being dead, or taken captive by someone. But who? Another question.

All very exciting. Started ASoS on Monday. Already so exciting. Love it that Jamie Lannister has his own PoV chapters now (am loving his journey to Kings Landing together with Brienne -who is slowly becoming one of my favorite character- and Cleos Frey. Am anxious to find out how that will all work out), and that Samwell Tarly will have his own as well. Can't wait to read what will all happen next. What an exciting series!

And a qucik question to the people who read this series, but is the Wall featured in A Feast for Crows? I just checked the wikipedia for that, for some weird ass reason. And didn't see The Wall featured in the Storylines. Can anyone answer that question -without spoilers please-

Thanks. :)

Thanks. :-)

Just finished A Storm of Swords I: Steel and Snow.

Altogether a great read, some parts felt slow and inconsistent, espicially in the middle. Most chapters would end very exciting and fast-paced, and then end in an exciting note. And then hop over to a character that didn't have much going on at the moment, and all that excitment felt gone. So that was kind of a bummer. But the end of the book totally made up for it.

Spoiler

+

Bran and Jon's final chapters intertwining was awesome. Bran and Jon were so close to each other and they didn't even know it. On the one side you wanted them to reunite. But at the other side you'd know the wildlings would probably have killed Bran no matter what Jon said. So I'm kind of happy they ended up not seeing eachother. And Jon escaping the wildlings at the end was also very exciting. That entire final 2 chapters were pure gold. The setting, the location, the weather and the circumstances. It just felt so natural and I had this perfect image in my head on how it all looked. Was obviously very impressed by the ending.

For the first half of A Storm of Swords here is my list on most favorite to least favorite characters (I love of um all btw.)

Spoiler

+

1. Daenerys Targaryen 2. Jon Snow 3. Arya Stark 4. Samwell Tarly 5. Davos Seaworth 6. Bran Stark 7. Jaime Lannister 8. Tyrion Lannister 9. Sansa Stark 10. Catelyn Stark Now before you get on the hate train on why I put Sansa above Catelyn was because, although I love Catelyn, she didn't have any progression in this first half of ASoS besides her aquainting with the idea that Hoster was dying, which she was already doing for half of ACoK. So it was understandable that I wasn't very excited with the Catelyn chapters. But a good side though with Catelyn this partmof the book was that Robb had returned to Riverrun, so you got to see more of what was going on in his head. So that was good, but not good enough to out Catelyn higher in my rankings. And the reason why Sansa is higher then Catelyn is because Sansa progressed big time with a lot of elements in this book, whilst in the first 2 books her chapters were slow and tedious, her chapters here finally had some progression, that you just know that there will be some major stuff happening to her soon. Will she go back to the now destroyed Winterfell, or will she go with the Tyrell's to Highgarden, or will she go to Riverrun to go back to her mother. The wedding of Joffrey and Margarey keeps on getting closer and closer, there's been so much build up to that moment on Sansa's part. I just know something major is gonna happen to her. And I cannot wait to find out. So yeah, as you can ee Sansa had moremprogress this part of the book then Catelyn did. Also the reason why Sansa is higher.

Am gonna start A Storm of Swords II: Blood and Gold now. The first chapter is Daenerys, so that should set the tone. Am way excited! :-)

I actually heard that A Feast for Crows and A Dance with Dragons were the 2 worst books a ASoIaF. Or did you mean ASoSIIBaG?

But either way, what did you think of AFfC and ADwD?

Oh and btw, that 'favorite character' list is a list of my favorite PoV characters from most favorite to least. Not all the characters in general, otherwise Hodor, Osha, Robb, Brienne and Ygriette would have been in it instead.

Danny @ 5/4/2015 1:00

Hodor, Osha, Robb, Brienne and Ygriette.

Three of which Curtis couldn't stand in the beginning. :p

Okay, cool. Thanks.

Having new character PoV's always excites me. So is it true about what I heard that a lot of the first 3 book's PoV characters won't be in it? And about A Dance with Dragons being the same timeline as A Feast for Crows but then with different characters?

Thanks. :-)

And I just watched the fourth season trailer under the impression that I was caught up, since someone told me that ASoSI:SaS was season 3, and ASoSII:BaG was season 4. But then I hear a character say this:

Spoiler	+
Robb Stark is dead.

Kind of a bummer that yet another death is spoiled. But I have myself to blame for being so damn curious. Now all I have left is to hope that just like with Irri, that it doesn't happen in the book.

Thanks.

And one last thing.

Spoiler	+
I was reading an article about the Sandsnakes that are gonna be in season 5. Which was freaking stupid of me to do. But ofcourse in relation to the sandsnakes I found out about Oberyn's death. And I also found out from a troll on youtube about Tywin's death.

So my question is, do those parts happen in ASoS still, or later on?

And yeah, I've had enough of all these spoilers popping up everywhere because of my stupidity. So I'm gonna dislike all the GoT related pages on FB until I'm caught up. And try not to search up anything in relation to GoT until I'm caught up as well.

Oh that's good to know. Even more big then the red and purple wedding. (I've already read those) 😄

And yeah, the only 3 spoilers I know for AFFC/ADWD are these:

Spoiler	+
Theon's name changes to Reek and he gets his dick cut off. Dany and someone elses pov intertwine during ADWD. The Sand Snakes being badasses

But those aren't even that bad to know, those spoilers are actually spoilers that make me hyped up for what's to come. So I'm excited for that. 😊

Was talking to a friend on FB about ASoIaF, and thought I'd post my thoughts on here as well. So I'm right now around 60% done with ASoSII:BaG. And here are my thoughts on each character. And what my thoughts are on the final battle of the series.

Spoiler

+

Bran: Him, Hodor, Jojen and Meera. Ran into Sam and Gilly. And Sam is now taking them somewhere. I totally LOVED that ending of ASoSI with Jon and Bran being so close, but yet so far away. That location of where Bran was was perfectly imprinted in my head, completely my own imaginiation. I loved that part, because it was so tense, and I have no clue of Bran and Jon's fates, so I wasn't spoiled that they were for sure not gonna die like I am with Theon and Sansa. So that made it even more exciting. 😊 I saw that Bran doesn't have any chapters left this book, which is too bad. But I did see that Sam still has 2, which may or may not still feature Bran. But I assume that Bran will be back in AFFC since the title is kind of fitting to his quest to find the three-eyed crow. But I'll just have to wait and see. 😊 Samwell: Him and Gilly escaped the traitors at Craster's Keep, and made their way towards the wall where they ran into some Wights. But were saved by someone who Sam calls 'Coldhands'. Am starting to think it's Benjen. Haha, but I think everyone who's identity isn't known is Benjen, I don't know why. 😜. but later on at the wall, they ran into Bran, Hodor, Jojen and Meera. And is now guiding them beyond the wall. Exciting stuff. I saw that he still has 2 chapters, I assume that the next chapter featuring Sam will show how brings Bran some place, don't know where. And his second and last one for this book would be that he makes it back to Castle Black with Gilly. I like it that Samwell got his own PoV chapters, cause he's cool. 😊 Jon: Jon has already been back at Castle Black for awhile, and I love how he is slowly turning into like the new commander at Castle Black. Especially after his most previous chapter, when the huge wildling army attacked the wall. A very good chapter in my opinion. I saw that Jon still has like 4 chapters, which is freaking crazy considering Davos and Bran don't have any anymore. But I'm def still looking forward to them. I'm excited for Jon and Bran to see each other again. It probably won't happen in this book, but when it does, they better not ruin the moment like they did with The Arya/Catelyn/Robb reunion. That was fucking cruel, haha. And I can see Sam keeping it a secret about Bran when and if Sam returns to Castle Black. Because of course Bran has a mission, and he knows Jon won't let um go further with it if he finds out, being the protective (half) brother that Jon is. So I'll just have to wait and see with that as well. Arya: Wow, how Arya has changed over these books. I personally found her to be the most badass she's ever been in ACoK, but I still like her a lot. But she's also gone through a lot! Arya has been taken by Sandor, and they are traveling... Well I don't know where. Haha, one minute Sandor wants to go to The Vale to bring Arya to Lisa for a prize in return, the next he wants to go to Riverrun to bring Arya to Brynden for a prize in return. And now Arya asked him to travel to The Wall to reunite with Jon Snow. Ofcourse I hope Arya travels to The Wall. I've always loved her bond with Jon and would want nothing else that Arya reunites with him, Arya definitely needs a break from everything. And Jon would be the perfect person to comfort her. But I also heard something (-.-) about her maybe travelling to Braavos... Or that was Sansa, but I think I read Arya's name. But maybe it was with a question mark behind it when I saw the thumbnail on youtube. So yeah, I dunno. Haha, and I don't wanna find out yet. But I do hope that Arya can actually go someplace, and actually MAKE it there. Every single time she wanted to go some place, it has failed: ACoK: Yoren tries to bring her back to Winterfell. -Fails. ACoK: Gendry, Hot Pie and a some other peeps that escaped the Lannisters attack on Yoren travel to Riverrun but then get caught by the goldcloaks and get taken to Harrenhal. -Fails. ACoK: Arya escapes Harrenhal (Jaqen though was a fucking badass. Def my favorite Arya chapters when he was in them). With Hot Pie and Gendry again, and they travel to Riverrun, but get caught by Northernmen, and get taken to Roose Bolton. (The mofo who killed Robb) -Fails ASoS: Escapes Roose Bolton's guys when they try and bring her someplace. And tries to go back to Riverrun. But get's taken by Sandor. -Fails ASoS: Arya and Sandor head towards the Twins, where ofcourse The Red Wedding is being held. 😜. they make it. But not quite. -Fails. Will she ever make it someplace, haha. Jaime: Jaime and Brienne have been together on there way to King's Landing for so long now. Jaime had his hand chopped off whilst on the way. And I was scared he would get that same curse as Arya when he was taken to Harrenhal (having a destination, but never making it). But luckily his most previous chapter showed how he made it safely to King's Landing. I continue to love Jaime and Brienne's weird bond. Jaime is so cute everytime he sticks up for Brienne and outs his worries and fears to her. Kind of like a normal brother/sister type bond. (Kind of ironic seeing as this is Jaime we are talking about.) He just barely didn't make Joffrey's wedding. But right when he made it back to King's Landing, he and Cersei had their little reunion sex right next to Joffrey's coffin, which is like fucked up on so many levels! I am excited to see his recovery and his future while being back in Kings Landing. It's going to be pretty fun to see what'll happen. Tyrion: Poor, poor Tyrion. I really felt bad for him at Joffrey's wedding. Tyrion saved them during The Blackwater Battle, and noone even acknowledges it, and they continue to treat him like shit, which is completely unfair. And now he's even been 'arrested' for suspicion on the murder of Joffrey. Which is also completely fucked up. In ACoK I was finally starting to feel some sympathy for Cersei, and was even growing to love her a little bit, but now that's completely gone. She was being such a petty bitch towards Tyrion. I hope he'll be okay. I know he stays alive for atleast this book, but I don't know what all happens to him. So I'm quite curious, but I hope it's good. And I hope Shae will stay okay as well. Tyrion really can never be himself. Quite sad actually. Sansa: I hated her in AGoT, started to like her more and more ever since she got the letter about the godswood. But still not enough to be anywhere high in any favorites list. But she's been quite entertaining during ASoS, and espcially now that she escaped King's Landing. With Baelish out of all people to be the one behind the plan to save her. Was quite unexpected. Even though I saw a picture a month past of them kissing, haha. I had just assume that Dontos would be Baelish's role for that part in the book. And that they'd axe Dontos' character for the series and mix Dontos into Baelish. But I was obviously wrong. Because Baelish is now bringing Sansa to some place. Sansa says 'home'. So I'm assuming she means Winterfell. I'm excited that she. An finally get some location variaty, I've missed that with Sansa's character. These next few Sansa chapters (which will luckily be 2) are bound to be very entertaining chapters. 😊 Catelyn: Dead. 😞 Her death was sad. The most tragic death I think ever. She had in her mind that all her children were dead. And seeing Robb being killed right in front of her, she really must have lost all hope at that moment. And felt so helpless and painfully sad. And then to have her throat slashed right after that. So fricking sad and tragic. Espicially considering on what a kind person Catelyn actually is. (only with her occasional Jon jabs being quite annoying) but for the rest I really loved her. And was sad to see her being killed off in such a terrible way, espicially because Arya could have brough back so much hope for Catelyn. Arya being that close made it even more sad. So, so, so tragic. Davos: His chapters are very handy to see Stannis and Melisandre's sides of things. I think Melisandre is definitley one of the more interesting characters. So I always enjoy seeing more about her character. And Davos provides that. But Davos is now the Hand of the King (to Stannis). And just barely shipped Edric Storm (which I heard is Gendry in the series) off. Thereby pissing Stannis and Melisandre off. And Melisandre was very worried about the consequences of Davos' actions. I bet we'll see what'll happen soon. Although Davos doesn't have any more chapters this book, which is quite weird. I hope he still has a PoV chapter in the next book. (luckily I have remained unspoiled about PoV characters in AFFC, and I'd like to keep it that way. Haha, just a heads up. :-p) And keeping the best for last: Daenerys: She is fucking awesome. She freed 2 slaver cities, and is getting closer and closer to free and Mereen. And her army continues to get bigger and bigger. And Arstan and Jorah both revealed their secrets to her. Which will probably make her into an even more hard character. 2 of the 3 betrayals have taken place. I was quite worried at the beginning of ASoSI that her side-tracking from going to Pentos would slow down her character even more then her slow chapters in ACoK, but luckily that hasn't been the case. Dany has declared herself a badass, haha. And her reign over the slaving cities really made me love her character even more then I already did. She'll have her army, and will most likely soon be arriving in Pentos. And from there, it's on to Westeros, am so excited. 😊 Here were my thoughts on the final battle: Since Melisandre keeps on talking about 2 sides, I'm thinking the final battle of the series, may even be that what she keeps on talking about. It would make perfect sense (atleast from my point of view at this moment). It having a slow build-up, slowly finding out more and more as you go along, but remaining in the background until the battle for the throne is more calm. Then a new threat will arise, being the lords and gods that Melisandre keeps on talking about. I may also sound pretty stupid right now, but I see that being a pretty awesome final battle. Allard (a friend of mine who only watches the show) thinks the final battle of the series will be Dany trying to take over the throne. But I don't think that's the case, that will still happen. But I don't think the series will end in that note, it would be good arcwise. But I feel it may be a bit predictable if that ends up being the final battle. But who knows, I'm still too early in the series to judge about that. But that's my opinion right now atleast. What'd you think when you were as far as me? 😊

Whoops. Okay this is the last one. I'm really not gonna look at anything GoT related anymore unless it's the books. Like... Seriously. But I have a question if this still happens in A Storm of Swords:

Spoiler	+
Just watched a watchmojo video about top 10 GoT characters. And Petyr was #10. And I saw that he was speaking to Lisa. Lisa confessed to putting something in Jon Arryn's drink before his death. And then Petyr pushes her off something -probably to her death-. So I was wondering if that still happens in ASoS, or later on?

Just finished A Storm of Swords (only need to read the Epilogue still). Very cool! As you all see I was spoiled by a lot of deaths this book. So I unfortunately couldn't get the full expierence, but I still very much enjoyed it. And a lot of events I didn't see coming which I also really liked. I'll give an explanation of where each PoV character is, and what I think is in store for them in the upcoming books:

Bran Stark

+

Bran is now behind the wall. Sam only mentioned a tiny little bit about Bran in his other chapters. So I have absolutely no clue what they are up to. I did hear some stuff about them being captives and shit, but I think the series only did that to kake his parts more entertaining for the series. Kind of like how they did that Pyat Pree and Dany's Dragons in season 2 (A Clash of Kings). But I'll just have to wait and see. Ofcourse I expect he'll still be searching for the crow in AFFC or ADWD, and am anxious to find out what'll happen all then. But yeah, Bran was pretty much a non-entity this book -besides that chapter when he was so close to being with Jon-. But for the rest, I sometimes even forgot about him. And that's not good, espicially how much I loved him in the first one.

Jon Snow

+

A lot happened with Jon this book. From being practically a wildling at the beginning of the book, to being Lord Commander of the Night's Watch at the end of it. Ofcourse there is still the promise of Stannis Baratheon of that Jon Snow could become the new Stark of Winterfell if Jon did the stuff Stannis wanted him to. But now ofcourse Jon has different priorities, but it's still something he'd want I imagine. So am excited how they'll handle that in ADWD.

Samwell Tarly	+
Sam has mentally grown this book, he stands up for his rights, and sets goals for himself and achieves them, what he'd def not been able to do in ACoK and AGoT. And his bond with Gilly is way cute. Am also excited to find out what they'll do with him in ADWD. Melisandre has been keeping an eye on him, which is also worrisome. But very interesting too.

Sansa Stark

+

Love Sansa. I hated, hated, hated her in AGoT. She was okay in ACoK, but nowhere near likeable, it took me more than the first half of ASoS to get into her character, but after The Purple Wedding and Joffrey's death, her character has stood out. And that chapter where Lysa dies, Sansa was making a snow castle... I think that's foreshadowing.... Or symbolism to somethat that once was. I'll explain both parts: Symoblism: Winterfell was made, and used. Until the ironmen destoryed it. Sansa in this case symbolized the builders, Baelish the user, and Robert the destroyer (the ironmen). Foreshadowing: Jon accepts the offer of Stannis, and starts rebuilding Winterfell. He becomes a leader for quite some time... Until the giants of behind the wall, destoy Winterfell and Jon along with it. Sansa then symbolising Jon, Baelish symbolizing Val. And Robert symbolizing the Giants (his stuffed animal, the one who ruined the snow castle Sansa made was a giant). That would even be more fitting, because it being made out of Snow, symbolizes Jon Snow. More snow falling onto the castle symbolizes the children he'll make with Val. And the snow castle being destroyed then symbolizes Jon and Winterfell going down after it beind made again. Or I'm way overthinking this, but I thought it could be some clever foreshadowing on GRRM's part. Am very anticipated for more Sansa chapters, so that' why I hope she'll be a PoV character in AFFC. I really, really hope that's the case. Because I definitley want to see more of Baelish and the Vale, espcially now that Lysa is dead. Interesting stuff. I love how Baelish just pushed that bitch off, and very ironically Lysa's last words that she heard from Baelish were 'Cat'. Anyone who knows the context of the situation, knows why it's ironic.

Arya Stark	+
She left The Hound, which is sad. As I really loved his character, even before he was travelling with Arya. I think I even made a post on here about how I liked the bond he had with Sansa in King's Landing. But she's now on her way to Braavos... Valar Morghulis.

Catelyn Stark

+

Her death was sad. The most tragic death I think ever read. She had in her mind that all her children were dead. And seeing Robb being killed right in front of her, she really must have lost all hope at that moment. And felt so helpless and painfully sad. And then to have her throat slashed right after that. So fricking sad and tragic. Espicially considering on what a kind of person Catelyn actually is. (only with her occasional Jon jabs being quite annoying) but for the rest I really loved her. And was sad to see her being killed off in such a terrible way, espicially because Arya could have brought back so much hope for Catelyn. Arya being that close made it even more sad. So, so, so tragic. Buuuut... Lady fucking Stoneheart. (Youtube trolls)

Jaime Lannister

+

I liked his chapters, sometimes they were bland and slow, but Brienne totally saved them, because Brienne is just awesome. What I like most about Jaime is his fair bond with Tyrion. He always treats him fairly, unlike that bitch Cersei. And it was very cool that he helped Tyrion escape death. Now with Tywin dead... Anything is possible with Jaime and Cersei's characters. So a, anxious to find out what'll happen. I also hope along with Sansa, that Jaime will be one of the PoV characters in AFFC.

Tyrion Lannister

+

He fucking killed Tywin and Shae at once. He's escaping the city, and most likely on his way to one of the free cities in the East. And then just like with Sansa: Tyrion is on the run from Cersei for being accused of Joffrey's death. If that flower hag, Olega, or whatever. The mom of that flower chick Margarey doesn't confess soon, then I think Cersei will die quite soon. I just have that feeling. And also of that flower hag not confessing, that will lead to a bunch of future books being Tyrion and Sansa on the run. Exciting stuff, Tyrion is also gonna be completely exhausted. Mentally exhausted. He's gone through so much abuse, that poor lil guy. But I can't wait to see what'll happen with him in AFFC and/or ADWD.

Davos Seaworth	+
He's now at the Eastwatch by the Sea together with Stannis' wife Selyse and child Shireen. Davos has proved himself a worthy member in Stannis' trust circle. And I expect a lot of great stuff to happen with the trio of Stannis/Melisandre/Davos. Exciting stuff!

Daenerys Targaryen

+

She had taken over Mereen now, was dissapointed with her final chapter. It felt anti-climatic. It didn't deliver any hype like her final chapters usually do. She mentioned staying in Mereen and creating her kingdom there. Which could be interesting if they hadn't teased us with her try'na take over Westeros. But I'm quite sure that'll still happen. But I think she'll let her dragons grow in Mereen and that when they're big nough, she'll go to Westeros without even stopping in Pentos. But yeah, that'll all be discovered in ADWD. But first AFFC. So damn excited!

Here's my list from my most favorite PoV characters to my least favorite (I liked them all, so this list'll be tough):

Rankings	+
1. Jon Snow 2. Arya Stark 3. Daenerys Targaryen 4. Sansa Stark 5. Tyrion Lannister 6. Samwell Tarly 7. Davos Seaworth 8. Jaime Lannister 9. Bran Stark 10. Catelyn Stark

I heard that A Feast for Crows has 12 PoV's... So something I didn't do my last book review, I'll predict who I think will be PoV characters in the next book. Okay so here it goes:

PoV Speculation	+
Sansa Stark Arya Stark Davos Seaworth Cersei Lannister Theon Greyjoy Asha Greyjoy Jaime Lannister Ellaria Sand Nymeria Sand Edmure Tully Loras Tyrell Edric Dayne I'm probably embarrasingly wrong, but I would love these PoV's. (keep in mind that I practically know that Sam, Bran, Jon, Tyrion and Dany don't have PoV chapters this book.)
