SerArthurHeath Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 I technically did this ages ago but I feel far more attached and involved in teh forum recently- I'm a recently finished med student/ recently qualified doctor from the UK. I love rugby, musicals and performing music in addition to books. I read ASOIAF because someone on a WoT site said they were basically necessary to read ages ago. I didn't get into the books until a fair way through Clash, now I love them of course. I also follow the show. I apologise for any flippancy or sarcasm, or pedantry and strong opinions, on my part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryden Tully Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Hey everyone, I've been having a look on this forum for about 2 months and I thought I'd finally sign up to have a go on it. I'm currently rereading the books as I've realized how thin my knowledge is of them. It's interesting seeing/comparing them to the TV series because there such different media's and complement each other very well. I'm a big fan of Tywin Lannister mainly due to him becoming the de-facto kingmaker in the series, something that often happened in History. At heart I'm a big fan of the North/Riverlands alliance, and I know that makes me pretty Vanilla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eirlys Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Hey, so sorry for the delayed reply. How are you doing?Lol about Jon, :lmao: I'm not a fan of either but Kit is adorable :wub:Are you still on the first book? How are you liking it so far?I agree that once you put in the time to watch the show, and find characters you like or can relate to, it's pretty addicting.... At least to me :DI also agree with you about Robb, I didn't like him in the book/show either.... :dunno:Hello again! :)I'm a bit slow at the moment, I've only read the first 440 pages so far... but I made a small detour to bookshop a few days ago and bought the second book.I enjoy the first book a lot already, so I'm sure it was a good investment. GRRM's writing style is great, it's so vivid, you can picture everything so easily and all the characters seem real and fleshed-out. I just love it.I can't wait to read the third book because I read that Jaime will become a POV character then. I'm a bit scared though that maybe I won't like him anymore once I actually see his point of you and maybe realise that his way of thinking doesn't match the way I had imagined... and that I've only been whitewashing him because I like him. Still, there are many characters that I enjoy and that I'm looking forward to. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll enjoy it, I'm certain of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that many consider Jaime's POV chapters to be the most enjoyable, along with Tyrion's. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
