This book was my least favorite of the Song of Ice and Fire series. There were no chapters set in the north, which was a huge disappointment. However, I did enjoy Arya and Sansa’s storylines. I wish we had seen more of them in this book. 

Most of the action happened in the last third of the book. It is a VERY SLOW BURN. I felt like the story could have been much shorter
