I read the first book so fast AND I read it while watching the show simultaneously so... hmm.
Spoiler:


Everything else in the book, even if it was really fantastic, fills me with dread and/or sadness. LOL

Oh I loved the Jon/Tyrion interaction in the book. I loved the way Tyrion spoke to Jon about his attitude and the way Jon was receptive to the lesson. That was really great.

Maybe after a re-read I'll be better able to answer this.

While reading the book, I didn't find his actions frustrating. I guess because I was in his head and most of the actions he took made sense from his point of view. But I definitely found them irritating on the show, without that insight.

Yeah, since I watched the show first and just got to those chapters now... it's frustrating.

Hmm, that makes me worried for when I get to those chapters but at least I'll be distracted from reading this one for at least another few days since I got another library book yesterday

I think I need to re-read before I can answer this . I read it pretty quickly as well.

XD I'm probably biased but my favorites had been Jon's and Bran's chapters.

I think my favorite chapters in book 1 are Jon's and Arya's. It's tough, though - I like most all of the POV characters in book 1 (except maybe Sansa, but I still find most of her chapters interesting even when I don't like her).

I really need to do a re-read as i read all the books one after another but my fave would be the ones of my favourite characters, which would be Jon, Tryion and Arya.

I wish Robb had been a POV character.

I wish Robb had his own POV too it would be nice to see how a 16 year old handles being made King in his own words.

Yeah. It would have been an interesting perspective... seeing his through process and his emotions through the whole thing

absolutely. I think it would have added even more richness to the story as well...

I think it would have been interesting but perhaps it would have been hard to write?
