YA Buddy Readers' Corner ♥ discussion

Chapters 46-50 (boy I'm behind)
(view spoiler)[
Well, Viserys sure did get a crown aight. The one he deserved. Anyhow, Rhaego is sure a powerful name and I like the Targaryan names the most. Rhaegar, Rhaego, Aemon, Aegon, Daenerys. They all sound powerful

Now I realize how bad the actor for Renly was casted. I mean this one at least had the look of a hero and someone from a folk tale.

And goddammit Ned! What the f*ck are you doing. You can't say no to every ally of yours and expect that Robert's letter would save you. You're goddamn surrounded by Lannister men yet blabber about honor. THERE CAN BE F*CKING HONOR WITH SOME WIT AS WELL
God I always get mad at this part

And how badass was Syrio Forel, he practically toyed with them with a wooden sword

Chapters 51-55
(view spoiler)[
Can't believe this. They got her father and damn Sansa is still into Joffrey. She's so stupid currently that it just makes me cringe

And how did Jon know what happened to Lady and Nymeria? Wasn't he far gone on the Wall when that happened? And yayy, we have zombies!!! :D

Robb is more decisive than his father it seems. I kinda like it. And damn, that little story about Greatjon becoming his right hand is sure...queer. Also, Robb telling that Rickon isn't a baby anymore, and then saying he's close to 4 is just funny as heck
And naked Hodor...I didn't need to imagine that

So Drogo cares so much about Dany's assassination attempt so he vowed to rape all the women in Seven Kingdoms :w

And I just adore all the war planning. It makes the war feel like a real war. Not just clashing of swords and BOOM, we have a victor

Chapters 56-60
(view spoiler)[Tywin is sure a mean and serious man. Hard as a rock if I might say, he was unperturbed when gruesome monster like people smashed into his quarters. That is... commendable. I still hate that guy though

Poor Barristan, he didn't deserve all that laughter and mocking. He was one of the few real knights.

Varys is the most complicated person in this book for me. You never know his agenda and what his plans are. To whom else he whispers I wonder. And also, the tiny mystery about the cat is solved. The one who Arya failed to catch. It's name is Balerion and it was a royal cat :D

Walder Frey, that is one of the characters that makes me feel sick the most. I just am so repulsed by his every action and word he speaks. I mean that dude has so many kids named Walder that he can't even remember them all

Aemon's story is so tragic, and I love that everything is so much explained this book. Even why they don't get married or have sex
(hide spoiler)]

Chapters 61-65
(view spoiler)[
Robb is sure a good commander for his age. Though...an old fox is tough to beat. I hope he won't get cocky

Tyrion got a whore, I hope he won't fall in love again like when he married the other one.

And Qotho's way of torturing the Maegi are...vivid I guess
And Danny realized how she was wrong trusting the Maegi, and it's interesting she saw the wolf. We know who the wolves are in this series :P

And Eddard is dead, I frankly was surprised the first time around.

(view spoiler)[
Well, I always get sad around this part. Eddard was a noble man, died because he thought more with his heart than his head. At least Arya's safe

Also, Bran's POV is a big info dump. And I liked it :)

Sansa is realizing how a fool she was, and what Joffrey really is. A monster

(hide spoiler)]

66-72
(view spoiler)[
Oh what a interesting end. So many stuff happened and so many new plots are being foreshadowed. I remembered first time being awed by Danny walking out from the fire carrying dragons. That was epic

And Jon is my favorite in his book. Even though he was a bastard he loved his father a lot, but he kept a vow and his own honor made him come back.
(hide spoiler)]

chapter 39-60
(view spoiler)[
i love who Jon take care of Sam, he talked to maester Aemon to let Sam be a night's watch.

Tywin is an asshole , Tyrion story about how his brother paid the whore to act as a victim and sleep with him and then he married her and his father let all the solder sleep with her while he watched, poor Tyoin .

Dany brother finally died, he deserved it.

Eddard should've told Robert the truth about Joffery and the rest of his kids before he died so he could decided what to do and who sit on the throne after him. Eddard decision not to tell him so he could die in peace will be the end of him.

Sansa is so naive, i want to shake her so she could see what actually is happening.

(view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

finished
(view spoiler)[
those were an emotional last chapters , Eddard execution and seeing it throw Ary's eyes and then Sansa being hit and captured by fucking Joffery. khal Drogo death and Dany baby not being a human.
i loved reading this book, i want to continue with the series right away

7% (view spoiler)[About to meet my favourite character :D

So glad I've seen the show, so I can remember descriptions and settings (hide spoiler)]

Ch 1-11
(view spoiler)[I love Tyrion! I laughed so hard when he slapped Joffrey! Twice! lol. I have a feeling Tyrion will end up being my favorite character. I also love the direwolves omg! (hide spoiler)]

Yes Tyrion is my favourite too <3

14% (view spoiler)[Uuuugh this whole Bran Catelyn business is so frustrating, why can't Catelyn just see that she's neglecting her other children! (hide spoiler)]

15% (view spoiler)[Alright good thing she was in the room.. But still, it wasn't okay of her to act like that! (hide spoiler)]

22% (view spoiler)[I wish someone had told Jon before it was too late how shit the Night's Watch is! (hide spoiler)]

Ch 12-15
(view spoiler)[
"I swear, at times you're so prickly you ought to take the hedgehog as your sigil" Lol. Stubborn as he might be, the king can be quite funny. But I still think he's a fool for trusting the Lannisters. He should listen to Ned..

Yes omg Jon was so disappointed when he saw who Yoren brought to join the Night's Watch! Btw can Tyrion and Jon just become best friends and go on amazing dragon-involving adventures?!

I'm happy Bran's wolf saved them and I'm relieved Catelyn suspects the Lannisters. (hide spoiler)]

Ch 16-21
(view spoiler)[Poor Lady :( She did nothing wrong. Ugh why couldn't Sansa just tell them the truth?! But it probably wouldn't have done her any good..

"Every flight begins with a fall." Wow I loved Bran's chapter! And he named his wolf Summer.

So the dagger belongs to Tyrion? Did he try to have Bran killed to protect his siblings..? He seemed so nice and genuine. I don't want to be suspicious of him lol. (hide spoiler)]

I love your updates! :o So amazing, proper thoughts here as well!

Thank you!! I really enjoy BR with you!

Naw you're so sweeeet!

Ch 22-29
(view spoiler)[Ned has to balance being the hand of the king, lord of winterfell, a husband and a father. He has his flaws but I think he's doing the best he can. I really love that he arranged sword lessons for Arya!

The Dothraki sea sounds so beautiful omg. Chapter 23 (Daenerys |||) was like a short coming of age story lol. I'm glad she finally stood up for herself! She put her awful brother in his place and really became a leader. I was kind of scared at first when she talked about suicide, but she accepted her fate and made the best of her situation as a leader and a wife. But she's already pregnant omg. Can you imagine being pregnant at 14?! (okay her life is totally different but still haha)

It was so cool that Tyrion designed a saddle for Bran! I still hope he wasn't the one who tried to kill Bran.

It was so sad when Rob cried :( I hope they'll see their family again.

I DON'T TRUST LITTLEFINGER AND NEITHER SHOULD EDDARD.

It's nice of Jon that he stood up for Samwell. Imagine having parents like his.. Oef, no thank you.

So Jon Arryn found the King's bastard Gendry.. Maybe he wanted him safe because he knew Joffrey isn't the King's son and therefore not a true heir. Omg is Joffrey Cersei and Jaime's child?! (gross) Didn't they want to keep their houses pure like the Targaryens? Jon Arryn must have found proof and plannen to expose the Lannisters so they had him killed. Just as they probably tried to kill Bran. Weren't Jon Arryn's last words: the seed is strong...? Someone better figure this out soon!

I hate Joffrey. (hide spoiler)]

Ch 30-37
(view spoiler)["How could I have made a son like that, Ned?" Even his own father can't see a part of himself in Joffrey. Now I'm really convinced that he's not Robert's son. I also don't trust Varys or any of them. They all seem to know so much but never try to help.

That annoying singer who wanted a "splendid adventure" was so funny, but Tyrion remains the king of humor lol.

Ugh why won't Ned believe his daughter.. He didn't even try to make sense of her words.
"Mercy is never a mistake." I still like Ned a lot for being so honourable.

I'm kind of pissed that Catelyn took Tyrion prisoner without any further proof, took him to that madwoman and now the Lannisters went after Ned because of her.

Poor Dany :( Viserys is so rude to her! She just wanted to surprise him with a gift.. Ugh I hope she and her son will kick his ass.

I also really dislike Theon Greyjoy. He thinks so highly of himself. I don't trust him. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ I love how the stories are starting. There isn't too much back info but I don't feel like I'm being dumped into the middle of the stories either. There are already characters that I love and hate, but I kind of knew who I would like based on the show. A major difference, though, is their ages. I didn't realize most of them were so young.
