Carnivora Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Odds are I'll be in rural Kenya doing research on lions and hyenas as part of my Master's project, so I'll be a little late to the party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaafsta Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I will order it from eBay, hard copy of course, I like having the physical book in my hand when I read it :)I don't like that I'm going to do this, but I will be reading it almost non-stop, and will probably finish it within a week. I say I don't like this because I've waited so long the book to release only to have finished it so quickly :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zalim Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 audiobooks for me, i am going to take few days off offcourse, first listen to it and afterwards read it just to be sure i didnt miss anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aFeastForDragons Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I'll get it the first week hopefully. Pre-ordering and waiting on shops to get it in-stock will only leave me disappointed when it doesn't arrive on the release day. I'll just take a few weeks away from the internet so I can read it without any spoilers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Maverick Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Get it as soon as possible. Avoid the internet until I finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivosan Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I'll get the e-book on kindle, and will stay away from any fansite while reading it.It shoud take at least a week going through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locksley Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 I'll get it as soon as I can. It will probably take me a week or two to read it. I'll skim through the chapters briefly first to see if I can see a Jon chapter in the first 100 pages, if so I'll read it right away. If not, I won't ruin the rest of the chapters, I'll just start from the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Alex Dayne Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I will get it as soon as it comes out and begin my voracious reading process, and def start a re-read prior to the release of Winds and stay the fuck away from this forum until i'm done and satisfied Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJE Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I will flip through it at the book store until I find the first Wall chapter, then keep flipping until I find a Jon chapter. If Jon is really dead, I may not buy it or finish the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casso, King of the Seals Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I will probably pre-order a hardback copy or buy one in a bookstore as soon as it's possible. I plan on re-reading the series soon, so I hope that when I finish ADwD, TWoW will be already in my possession. My reading pace is quite slow, so it shouldn't be such a problem. I also plan on avoiding everything ASoIaF and GoT-related during the re-read and while reading TWoW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Lord of Stygai Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I will most likely pre-order the book through Amazon the second the date is announced. Then I'll go back and reread the last three books to refresh my memory on some characters. I'll probably finish the book in 2-3 days and then go back for a slower re-read to absorb everything that happened. Then and only then will I venture and see what people on the forums and reddit thought of the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewJeffCT Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I'm going to pick up the hardcover and the audiobook the day of release - I'm too old for a midnight release party, unless it's on a Friday night into Saturday, or Saturday night into Sunday. Not sure how long it will take me to get through the book, but I'm guessing a few weeks. I doubt I'll be able to avoid at least some spoilers.

Or, more likely, listen to the audiobooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clair de lune Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I like reading the ebooks because I can highlight and make notes. I did a reread last winter and made a point to highlight/note everything that caught my eye. My plan will probably be a midnight release, make sure I'm off work the next day. Read until about 4am, sleep, then read all the next day. Once I get about halfway done, I'll spread the rest of it out over the next few days.

_Jack_ Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I'm gonna give up on it ever being released and move to a hermits cave to begin my spiritual journey into the unknown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BookSnob4Ever Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 ebook for me as holding a book is too hard with arthritic hands. I can't believe I started reading the series almost 19 years ago. My oldest child was 2-1/2 yo and he may finish college before WOW is published. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curled Finger Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 I'll have the audiobook the minute it's available as well as the e-book. It should take less than a week depending what day of the week it is released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthon Stark Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 No midnight/camp out stuff for me, I'll buy it the next day. I prefer the paper copy, plus then I can easily loan it to my mom once I am done. Then I'm going against my usual reading pattern and looking for any POV chapters at the wall, as I want to find out Jon's fate. After that, while I can be a fast reader, I prefer to savor a large book like this, and I don't always have a lot of spare time, so I'll read about one chapter a day. I may reread some of Dance and Feast before hand, but won't do a full reread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
