pickI loved it very much, I‘m super immersed in this world of Westeros and I‘m loving the journey George is taking us on.
I just wish he would drop the rest of the books in a near future.

"I am tempted to say this is no game we play, daughter,
but of course it is. The game of thrones."
“You cannot eat love, nor buy a horse with it, nor warm your halls on a cold night.”
so-soI can‘t decide if Cersei is a feminist character or not. I lean toward not. I‘m not placing any moral value on her feminism. She‘s obviously a villain in this book. You could argue that her ascent to Queen Regent in a male-dominated society is the epitome of feminism. But the one nagging detail for me is her constant lament at not being born a man. Regardless, I‘m glad to be done with this slow-moving 34-hour political drama. ⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
so-soGood thing I've watched the series, this one was hard to follow.
Alright, cleared some storage on my phone to start this slog through Cersei‘s Revenge. I have grown to like Jaime Lannister more. But am really missing Tyrion in this one.
I‘m more than a quarter through this, and I realize that GRRM has grown tired of his Westeros story. No Tyrion—except in third-person exposition. One chapter for Sansa. Two chapters for Arya. This was a book about the dullest character, Cersei Lannister—a power-hungry narcissist who somehow is more cunning and vile than her murdered father. I need more House Stark. So glad I am not trudging through a physical read.
so-soI made it to the end. 🥱😴 I‘ll rate it so-so because it did move the story along a bit. I need a break before I read the next book in the series.
Ok, not really serious. 😆😜 But man, this book is such a disappointment. Where is Tyrion? Please tell me the next book is better!
pick723 p. Took me longer than the previous ones. The author decided to do a 2-parter and put half of the characters in one book, and half of them - to the next one. Not sure if lack of Daenerys had something to do with my slow reading

so-soSo far this was my least favorite. That being said I am excited to start A Dance with Dragons.
Hoping to finish these before 2021!
(I think it might be wishful thinking...)

Another to be read pile.... This time for the Clear Your Shit Read-A-Thon

Might get to finish this one today since I have start back in the office 😢 I‘ve been “work from home” since mid March. I‘m lucky to still have my job but I‘m not excited about the 45 min to hour commute 1 way. I‘ll be honest though it will be nice to get back to a little pre-COVID reality.
I think this will be my last of the series. I don‘t like the changes in language and style that Martin has made. The first 2 books were good, the 3rd ok, and this one is just not good. The story and characters are good for the most part, but the writing is terrible. He started turning the women into nothing but objects for the men. So much rape and sexual assault and sex in general. I don‘t know why the change but it‘s not good.
pickEnjoying my Game of Thrones Journey so far ... just started a feast for crows .......
I‘m not sure if I know what‘s going on in this book. 🤷🏻♀️ So much of it seems to blur together in my brain. Honestly I‘m not sure if I care any more. So much of it is just blah blah blah and really could have been cut out.
pickReally enjoyed this book. I‘ll admit, I audiobooked this one due to the length of it. Apart from the reader saying “Breyeenne” it was enjoyable! Lots of variation from the series here, although I don‘t know how the author will finish it in two books. It feels like the storylines are just starting to unfold!
🌼🌼🌼 since I couldn't find the stars I m giving 3 flowers to this book. It was a slow read but not an uninteresting book. In fact I loved reading Brianna's journey and Samwell's journey to the citadel. I hated Cercie who is getting stupider and crueler because she has no one to control her, Tywin dead, Tyrion gone and Jamie being a spineless twin and in love, she is excreting cruel juice in Kings Landing.
This one is going very slow... or because my mind is more on the news regarding Covid 19
AFTER THOUGHT: Even though there were pages and pages of unnecessary past stories of unimportant lords, ladies, squires etc, which I gladly skimmed through, it was very absorbing.. I think this book should have gone faster if there was a summary after every chapter 🐵
Enjoying a nice lazy day off work after my new tattoo with my book, my blanket and my boo 💓📖
Showing my ASOIF series collection. Looks like that they have been through many hands ..they have been lent, returned, read and reread.. that's how you enjoy THIS EPIC FANTASY. Now moving on to A Feast for Crows.. let's see how the feast goes..

My own husband doesn‘t understand this love of reading. I love to lose myself in another world...another story. I love this feeling.
A Feast for Crows carried over a bit between 18/2019. I'll aim to have The Stand in as 2020's big read. 📚 I did get to seeing all and the end of HBO's Season 8! 🐲 Once the Winds of Winter actually comes, I'll resume then, on A Dance with Dragons. 😜
