Y'all can call me Dodger. I'm 22, a new ASoIaF addict due to the show, and about a quarter of the way through A Game of Thrones. (Don't judge me; it's my senior year of college and I'm determined to up my GPA to, hopefully, cum laude status.) I've been trying to read the series for awhile now, but only just recently actually sat down to read it. I was hooked off the bat. Doesn't help that I fell in love with the show first. It's just too damned pretty. The food blog, The Inn at the Crossroads, doesn't help convince me otherwise either. Let's see, what else... I study English literature and history here at uni, with a focus on the classica and medieval eras. I have a penchant for using good grammar, swearing and overusing personal pronouns. I'm writing this from the bottom of Page 1 right now and the last poster was kairparavel which I am hoping is a Chronicles of Narnia reference. Fantasy has always been my genre of choice (science fiction literature has never appealed to me, but I will watch the shit out of anything sci-fi on TV). For the past four to six years, I've leaned towards urban fantasy, away from the high/sword-and-sorcery of my youth, but this series and reminded me of my intense love for the genre. Glad to be back; it feels like home. I think that's it for now. So yes, hello. *tips hat*
