Re: Game of Thrones (HBO Sunday nights @ 9PM EST)
So I finished A Dance With Dragons last night. After finishing it I did some reading on ASOIAF in general to clear up some misconceptions I had and boy, I overlooked ALOT of stuff.
Biggest one that I wasn't even thinking of was

Anyone still reading?
I miss my long sessions on the train to and from class/work. Thinking about re-reading all 5.Comment

Still reading other books for the moment. Book Three will have to wait, but I will be reading it sometime early next year, I'm sure."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Re: Game of Thrones (HBO Sunday nights @ 9PM EST)
I'm at the exact same point...though my excuse is that life has gotten in the way. At least I don't have to wait several years for the fifth book, as it's on my Kindle ready to go.
That being said, after the awesome emotional coaster of 'A Storm of Swords', I can't imagine anything living up to it.I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be. - Douglas Adams

Re: Game of Thrones (HBO Sunday nights @ 9PM EST)
My oh my, your in for a treat my friend. Book 3 makes the whole series IMHO. Im going to check out the new Stephen King book before I go for DWD, but Ill probably get to that around the time the 2nd season is airing. To think I never even heard of this series before this time last year, now I feel like an expert on Westeros lol.Comment

Re: Game of Thrones (HBO Sunday nights @ 9PM EST)
I'm having Westeros withdrawals. After holding off on the 2nd book, I have been extremely tempted to go ahead and buy it ahead of the second season. But then I tell myself, April is just a few months away!
****. I blame Skyrim.Comment

Re: Game of Thrones (HBO Sunday nights @ 9PM EST)
Get after it. Book 4 you need to charge through though. My friend, father in law, and wife are all up to Book 5 now (I hooked them on the series) and we all agree that Book 4 is the worst one.Comment
