Yeah. I've read that one too. It's one of the most solid theories tho. I've read crazier.

Yes @ Petyr's plan being set in motion. I screamed when The fool gave Sansa the necklace. So ready for that little prick to die.

@Superpower, I believe she be. They're just being tight lipped and keeping it under wraps because it is such a huge spoiler and plot point of Book 3. I'm almost positive she'll be this season's cliffhanger.

YESSS i loved that necklace scene.. its a nice touch in contrary to the Hairnet and the whole emotional attachment thing. considering the role its gonna play in the events, it better get that premiere footage!

i am honestly so blown away by the tv show every time, because they really get everything right! plus they get inside the story so well, really setting up the pace for the major events!

what scenes felt wierd to me were,
Jamie and Cercei's talk when she said "You took too long" and all that, i really couldnt place its importance or connection to the bigger story. it just felt so random. there obviusly is a strife between J&C but i dont think that wasthe way to go about it!
also, the scene with Jamie, Joffery and the Kingsguard book.. i wish they'd done that with just jamie alone, in the books i thought that was a really nice introspective moment for Jamie, where he decided to turn his life around!

Really enjoyed last night's episode! Psyched that it's back.

Does anyone have a gif of Drogon going ballistic on Daenerys when she tries to pet him?

Is it just me or does anyone else forget a good chuck of the side characters? When I'm reading I'm like "Who dat " XD

I'm almost finished Storm of Swords and omg I've adored this book

I'm halfway through AFFC. I'm LOVING it, and I had so many people forwarn me beforehand about it not being as good as the first three.

I guess I just really like reading about King's Landing, plus I'm LOVING the Iron Islands and Dorne.

Cersei's POV chapters are all amazing, I both chastise her stupidity and emphasize with her at the same time, she's such a compelling character.

Arianne is THAT BITCH, I can't wait to see who they cast for her + the Sand Snakes, who I also love.

And the Kingsmoot with Asha/Victarion/Euron was amazing. I love all three of them.

Another episode coming soon!! WOOOO
I'm reading A Clash Of Kings right now. It's good but some chapters are a bit boring. My favourites are definitely Bran and Daenerys!

I can't be bothered to use spoiler tags in the tv show thread.

Sansa's storyline is finally about to get interesting. Her and Petyr's are 2 of my favorites in ASOS. I can't wait to see Tyrion's trial and The Mountain vs Oberyn. I like Oberyn so much. It's going to be sad to see his character go :toosad:

I kinda am okay Shae screwing Tyrion over. Especially after what he did to her. She has every reason to.

My next anticipated scenes are, Shae getting choked out, Lady Stoneheart, Castle Black vs The Wildlings, Dany Conquering Meereen, and Bran meeting Cold Hands.

they are gnona make Shae's death even more sad in the show specially when tyrion did all he could to keep her safe.

after that change they did to Jamie and Cercei's relationship with that mind numbingly stupid reasoning, its nice that they decided to make things right with Shae and tyrion!! both of theirs actions will be justified when Tyrion kills her.

i recently read this article which reminded me that The Winds Of Winter is gonna have 4 major battles in different parts of the kingdoms..

the 2 obvious ones..
- Battle in Meereen
- Battle around Winterfell

but also..
- The battle in Storm's End (according to one released chapter of Arienne in TWOW its revealed that Aegon has somehow taken Storm's End and Tyrell and Baratheon forces are trying to retake it )
- The battle in the Reach (where the Greyjoy ships attacked the Arbor and surrounding areas)

IMAGINE THE NUMBER OF DEATHS AND THE AMOUNT OF ACTION!!! i am dying just thinking about it.

"I was lost without you, Jaime. I was afraid the Starks would send me your head. I could not have borne that." She kissed him. A light kiss, the merest brush of her lips on his, but he could feel her tremble as he slid his arms around her. "I am not whole without you."

There was no tenderness in the kiss he returned to her, only hunger. Her mouth opened for his tongue. “No,” she said weakly when his lips moved down her neck, “not here. The septons … “

"The Others can take the septons." He kissed her again, kissed her silent, kissed her until she moaned. Then he knocked the candles aside and lifted her up onto the Mother’s altar, pushing up her skirts and the silken shift beneath. She pounded on his chest with feeble fists, murmuring about the risk, the danger, about their father, about the septons, about the wrath of gods. He never heard her. He undid his breeches and climbed up and pushed her bare white legs apart. One hand slid up her thigh and underneath her smallclothes. When he tore them away, he saw that her moon’s blood was on her, but it made no difference.

"Hurry," she was whispering now, "quickly, quickly, now, do it now, do me now. Jaime Jaime Jaime." Her hands helped guide him. "Yes," Cersei said as he thrust, "my brother, sweet brother, yes, like that, yes, I have you, you’re home now, you’re home now, you’re home." She kissed his ear and stroked his short bristly hair. Jaime lost himself in her flesh. He could feel Cersei’s heart beating in time with his own, and the wetness of blood and seed where they were joined.

NOT RAPE NOT RAPE NOT RAPE

Spoiler about this character



been confirmed as

the Night's King

Pretty big spoiler from the unreleased books

i cant believe they spoiler'd that guy as the night's king!!! i wasnt even thinking that the NK will make an appearance in the books!! but now almost certainly it looks like he's still alive and kind of the leader of the WW!!

how could have GRRM allowed that to be shown in the show.. Spoilers are coming fellow Book Readers!!

GRRM has stopped making any public appearances since february as far as i know.. and there was so muhc talk of the show ending in 7 seasons and overtaking/spoiling the books, am i too delusional to hope that he's finally sitting his ass down to finish TWOW by the end of 2014??

She will appear in the end of episode 10.
Mark my words

Just finished Feast For Crows.

SLAYED. It's my second favorite book after SOS.

The last 5 chapters (Arianne - Sansa - Brienne - Cersei - Jaime) all had my jaw on the floor, and so did the Arya's last chapter where she wakes up blind .

Oh MY GOD @ Arianne being betrothed to Viserys !! Thank god she avoided that! I can't wait to read more about her story.

Littlefinger's plotting for Sansa to get Winterfell back ... AHhHhHHHhH!

Brienne's cliffhanger!! I thought for sure the word she screamed was Arya but apparently George already said that it's sword and that she said it to swear herself to Lady Stoneheart to save Pod .

Cersei... oh my god, the book may as well be called: The Self-Destruction of the Queen Regent! I love Cersei, but she made so many terrible decisions! Her downfall will be so delicious!

And THANK YOU Margaery for the ICONIC "Must I call my gaolers and have you dragged away you vile, scheming, evil BITCH!?" line!!!

And lastly... "Put it in the fire."

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I literally gasped aloud and just sat there in awe for five minutes. George is the KING!

One of my other favorite things is that he changed the "The night is dark and full of terrors" to "Some knights are dark and full of terrors" for Brienne's last chapter. He's just incredible.

I NEED WINDS OF WINTER!

Edit:

Also Alleras is clearly Sarella (I'm assuming you guys have already figured that out) and does anyone else think that Cersei's valonqar is JAIME, not Tyrion. George made sure to mention that Cersei is the older twin by a few minutes...

Really? so he sacrificed people to the others just to end up as one?
