I had to make this topic. I'm just that type of person. Also, I've been trying to get people interested in this series anyway! I think it's awesome, and I think you should read it if you are not already reading it. And if you ARE reading it, then read faster. And if you have already read it, then cry with me about how you can't wait for A Dance With Dragons.

Just started A Feast for Crows. Sadly most of my favourite characters aren't in it.
Posted by: Rhiannon Dec 28 2007, 05:43 AM
I had the same problem. :(
To cope with it, my mind decided to make me like Cersei.
Posted by: Irysa Dec 28 2007, 09:16 AM
I could have finished the first 4 if Calcutta had the bloody second book somewhere.
So right now, A Game of Thrones is all I have read. Dany is my favourite character so far.

I gues I should post this here, even though I already told everyone in the channel about the most important part.
GRRM updated his site with news on A Dance With Dragons. http://www.georgerrmartin.com/if-update.html

I don't really like her, but her chapters are the most interesting so far (I've now read half).
Posted by: Rhiannon Apr 11 2008, 01:34 PM
I don't know, I just started to appreciate her insanity in the same way I appreciate the insanity of Xenosaga's Albedo. And that appreciation made me like her.

Started reading A Game of Thrones last week. I got to the second Dany chapter today and I was like "Oh wait this probably has lolisex; I should stop reading." since it was on a school bus. <_<

I'm still reading a Game of Thrones... What's the next book after that? D:
Posted by: Yuka Sep 14 2008, 01:54 AM
A Clash of Kings. A Storm of Swords is the third, and A Feast for Crows is the fourth. A Dance with Dragons (whenever it comes out) is going to be the fifth.

What, the series isn't even finished yet..!? Anyway, I finished the first book. The ending was whoa D:!
Posted by: DustyHaru Sep 15 2008, 09:31 PM
Great. All this talk has gotten me interested, I've just ordered the first and second book at the library.
Are they heavy books?
Posted by: Rhiannon Sep 15 2008, 11:11 PM
The fact that you finished the first book leads me to believe you enjoyed it, Malice. I'M PROUD OF MYSELF FOR GETTING YOU INTERESTED DESPITE ALL OF THE SILLY LITTLE SEX SCENES.
They're fairly heavy since they have so many pages, but not like, textbook heavy or anything crazy like that.
Posted by: Irysa Sep 16 2008, 02:44 PM
She said it was only "good", not "awesome" though :(
Posted by: Malice Sep 17 2008, 08:03 PM
I finish most books that I start! OH AND GUESS WHAT I ORDERED THE SECOND BOOK FROM ANOTHER LIBRARY!!
The book wasn't very heavy! But TWO books might be :D!
Good is almost the same as awesome anyway Irysa...

Ok I just got A Game of Thrones yesterday, (after getting A Clash of Kings saturday)
should I bother to use spoiler tags?
Posted by: DustyHaru Sep 23 2008, 07:14 PM
Finished A Game of Thrones; starting A Clash of Kings.
Ned :|
Posted by: Malice Sep 24 2008, 01:55 AM
Ned :| indeed.
SECOND BOOK GET. I hope this will be good. :P
Posted by: Rhiannon Sep 24 2008, 05:53 AM
I THINK IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO USE SPOILER TAGS SINCE PEOPLE WHO COME INTO THIS TOPIC MAY NOT HAVE ACTUALLY READ IT BUT MAY BE INTERESTED IN POTENTIALLY READING IT.
And "Ned :|"?! More like "Ned ;_____;"
Posted by: Yuka Oct 3 2008, 11:27 PM
Tyrion is the best character ever.
Posted by: Raijinili Oct 5 2008, 11:25 AM
That seems like bad writing to me.
Posted by: DustyHaru Oct 6 2008, 09:59 PM
just finished a Clash of Kings. It took longer than I expected; I had stopped reading for a couple days.
And I'm really angry that I got spoiled on a really important event. :|
The rest of the story was okay, I was most interested in Tyrion and Jon.
Davos wasn't as interesting than I would have hoped. Only things he's got going for him are onions.
EDIT: Got rid of spoilers.
Posted by: Yuka Oct 22 2008, 08:19 PM
Ned ;____:
Anyways, I'm so close to finishing A Game of Thrones that I'm practically done. I have like 30 pages left, so I need to go read those.
And I'm done. Starting A Clash of Kings tomorrow.
Posted by: Malice Oct 25 2008, 02:19 AM
Ah craaap, I accidentally clicked one of those silly spoiler things. BAwwwwww why did I do that TT__TT!!
I just started a Clash of Kings... It's sooooo long whyyyyyy.. ;o;
Posted by: DustyHaru Oct 25 2008, 11:39 AM
I hadn't really started reading A Storm of Swords yet, the whole spoilage bummed me out :\
I guess I'll start today.
Posted by: Yuka Feb 25 2009, 09:25 PM
Just read a rather sudden turn of events in A Storm of Swords. I'm sad now.
Fuck you GRRM, fuck you. :(
Posted by: Rhiannon Feb 25 2009, 09:44 PM
Was it red?
Posted by: Yuka Feb 25 2009, 10:45 PM
Very red. And very wet.
Posted by: Lux Mar 13 2009, 09:01 PM
I'm halfway through A Storm of Swords.
I hate Cersei. :(
And I used to think Sansa was an ignorant slut, but she's sort of redeemed herself a bit.
Posted by: Yuka Mar 13 2009, 09:16 PM
Cersei is awesome, fuck you.
Nearing the end of A Storm of Swords.
Posted by: Lux Mar 15 2009, 06:02 PM
I'm only halfway through A Storm of Swords, so I'll find out I guess.
And yeah, nevermind. Sansa is still an ignorant slut.
Ever since they mentioned that Ygritte had eyes that were too far apart I keep imagining her with that feature REALLY exaggerated.

STARTED SERIES TODAY.
Posted by: Rhiannon Sep 10 2010, 03:05 AM
WHAT DO YOU THINK SO FAR
Posted by: Vahn Sep 10 2010, 03:15 AM
DRAGONS HAVE ISSUES, WOLVES AND ANTLERS GO TOGETHER APPARENTLY, AND PEOPLE ARE DYING WITHIN 10 PAGES. I am enjoying it, even though I'm not very far yet. IT'S HARD KEEPING UP WITH NAMES THOUGH.
Posted by: Yuka Sep 10 2010, 03:20 AM
IT GETS EASIER THE MORE YOU READ
FUCKING LOVE THIS SERIES BY THE WAY

Posted by: Vahn Oct 23 2010, 07:55 PM
Things are starting to happen really fast. People are dying. I guess I might have it finished before the end of next week.
Posted by: Rhiannon Apr 4 2011, 06:37 PM

Posted by: Rhiannon Jul 21 2011, 02:07 PM
So I finished A Dance With Dragons yesterday. IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT THE GENERAL CONSENSUS OF IT IS, BECAUSE TO ME IT WAS EQUAL TO AFFC, MAYBE EVEN A LITTLE WORSE. Only a few interesting things happened outside of Meereen, and the noninteresting stuff that happened seemed less interesting than in the other books. Maybe I'm imagining it though.
Either way, good book. DOES ANYONE OTHER THAN ME AND WALRUS EVEN HAVE IT YET
Posted by: DustyHaru Jul 21 2011, 03:16 PM
I'm planning on ordering it from the library soonish.
Posted by: Enzd Jun 2 2012, 03:19 AM
Does Catelyn ever get any better/more interesting because so far I really don't like her :|
Posted by: Rhiannon Jun 11 2012, 07:29 PM
No. Maybe. It's safer to go with no, but a thing happens.
Posted by: Noir Jul 13 2013, 06:15 PM
Like 3 years later, and in the last 2 months I've read through A Clash of Kings and almost finished A Storm of Swords. Long live the king.
FOR SOME REASON WHENEVER I GET TO A BRAN CHAPTER I'M ALWAYS "Oh. A Bran chapter :/" but I always end up liking them.
Posted by: Noir Oct 28 2013, 01:36 PM
I'm less than a hundred pages from finishing A Feast for Crows. College needs to not exist I have better things to do like read these books.
ALSO
Posted by: Rhiannon Oct 29 2013, 12:51 AM
OR SYMBOLICALLY
Posted by: Noir Oct 29 2013, 02:39 PM
ACTUALLY YOU COULD EVEN MAKE THE POINT THAT SYMBOLICALLY
Posted by: Rhiannon Oct 29 2013, 04:19 PM
YOU MAKE A PERSUASIVE ARGUMENT BUT I FEEL LIKE THOSE PEOPLE ARE MAKE POOR ONES.
BUT I'M SUPER BIASED BECAUSE FAVOURITECHARACTER
Posted by: Noir Jul 19 2014, 11:34 PM
I'M LIKE 50 PAGES FROM FINISHING A DANCE WITH DRAGONS AND ALL I KNOW TO SAY IS
