A Feast for Crows by George R.R. Martin

I have to say, while this volume was technically as good as the other books, I wasn’t as involved in it.  Partly because, as compared to Storm of Swords(but only that, not pretty much any other book in existence) not a lot happened, but more because, really, half the characters I care about weren’t in this one(or were only in one chapter and from ( Read more... )

Nah, I'm pretty much convinced Arya's blindness is temporary and a part of her training. Something about the acolyte she saw lighting the candles when she first entered their place. I think that's the level she's been promoted to.

oh yes, i'm certain its temporary. if not, i' sure her other senses will be increased enough that it's irrelevant.

it just wasnt quite expected.

And why is it that Bran keeps running into Jon's siblings and Jon satill thinks they're gone? *sigh*

grrm is a meanie.

and Sansa gone

I thought there were quite many good chapters of Sansa's . I like her becoming a strong person that is really quite resembling Cat now.

I liked "Crows" mostly for Jaime's change, for his chapters and the way he is remembering Brienne as some light.. And for Brienne's chapters. I like some of the Ironborn, Aeron and Asha and Euron is quite interestingly scary . And the horn. But I really could do without Samwell's cahpters though I like Samwell.

Did you notice that Sandor wasn't dead? And what do you think is going to happen to Brienne? Many of my friends think she is going to die. Oh noez! She is my favourite female charater there.

I meant Sansa gone from King's Landing, not the book(though she did seems to have fewer chapters than usual, to me) Her chapters were good(though, oddly, I worry for her more now than I did before) it's just that all the characters I was interested in left King's Landing ( ... )

I do too. Petyr is way too creepy creepy and old. And he is going to try more and more with her. But to tell the truth, I think Loras will survive though be disfigured and unable to stay in Kingsguard and at the end he and Sansa are going to marry and have babies and this will somehow complete the circle for her and be even be a replacement for Sandor. Who I agree is not going to be alive at the end because his main purpose is to kill as you say (and die doing it) zombie!Mountain.

And what do you think about the whole "Was there a kiss between Sansa and Sandor?" business?

BTW, I don't think Arya is blind forever and if she is she will have some supernatural vision or something. I think she will be very powerful very soon but I am not sure about her ever marrying..

bran(but not as a human)

Oh, interesting! What is your theory about this?

I don't think Brienne is dead yet...I think something will happen to save her.Sometimes I get dreams and I see ( ... )

Really, the only difference between sansa now and before is that she isn't being beaten physically now, but she's being mentally and emotionally abused and maniulated now. It, however, is something she can fight back against and defend herself against, which is helping to make her stronger(IMO, she's never been weak, she's just been hopelessly sheltered and shethought she was weak ( ... )
