So long, and so hard to keep all the events straight. I have to say though I like Jon Snow's perspective, Arya's perspective and Bran's perspective the most. Pretty much any of the perspectives that don't have to do with war :P

Every time I actually had the chance to read more than one chapter at a time, I really enjoyed this!! Although one chapter at a time did allow me to take breaks so you win some you lose some

There is so much to say but I think all the other reviews have already said it.

I really really enjoyed this book but felt I couldn't give it 5 stars since I enjoyed the first one more. So maybe, 4.5 stars?!

In true George R.R. Martin fashion there were so many twists and turns, the unexpected seemed to always happen, and I could never guess what would happen next. I loved that the book was not predictable and just when I thought I had it figured out, SURPRISE! I had no real idea what was really going to happen. How are you so clever Mr. Martin?!

The war scenes were a little dull for me, I'm much happier reading about love & romance and don't love all the gore too much, but it is a necessary evil in a book that's well, about WAR!

I loved that a big portion of the book was focused on Tyrion. I love that little man!! Can't wait to see what happens to him in book 3.

Highly recommended!!
