What can I say? A girl gotta have her cute stuff! ;D

Idk if any of the other members like George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, but for those of you who do (Hey, Jae!! lol) do you ever considered reading the books by POVs?? Like, reading Arya's chapters only, then Tyrion's only, and so on?
Some people even read the 4th and 5th books together, mashing up chapters since their plots occur at the same time! Any thoughts? :)
Hey ... I just started the 5th book! I read the forward and felt relief that I would finally find out about Tyrion ... because I love that little dude lol.
I never thought to read the books like that!!
Have you done that?
That would probably help me out ... I'm always like .. 'wait a sec. I forgot about that!'.

TMI for sure!! But I like it! I haven't done it yet because I don't know if maybe it would be best to read the whole series first, as GRRM intended, and then, with some knowledge of the facts, do a re-read by POVs!
I mean, he did write it this way... What do u think?
Yes .. I am reading it as he wrote it ... but he better come out with the 6th one before I finish the 5th ... lol ...
Do you watch the show? I wonder if he will spilt up the show like that ( he is the writer for it).

If you're interested here's where I found the mash up: http://boiledleather.com/post/2590255...
I do watch the show, yes! I really like it although some fans seem to think the first season was the most faithful to the books. I actually liked all of them so far! Though I wouldn't have minded some poetic license on "The Viper and the Mountain" episode, where he could have definitely saved the Viper... Omg! lol.
Of course now I alredy know tons of spoilers! ;)
There is so many new characters in those books I really don't know how he's gonna do it! I mean, the 6th book is yet to come and there are so many details he chose not to portrait on the tv series... I guess we'll have to wait and see!!
One thing is certain on this series: valar morghulis! loool
OMG .... I do like the show ... a lot, I got my boyfriend into it ... since I'm reading the books he's always like ... 'ok .. so what happens to so and so.. wait don't tell me' lol.
I like Jaime! I don't care! So I'm glad of his POV. I hate Cersei ... OMG I don't want to spoil it, but the end of book 4 was the best ending yet!!! Cliff hangers!!!

I think everyone fell in love with Oberian, I loved him too.. his end so soo gruesome! I shut my eyes ... I knew what happened to him...
