A review by chilliam_mc
A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin

4.0

Oh the books are way better than the show. I particularly love that we get the characters’ thoughts, it really adds a good dimension to the story. The world building and character development is just leagues better in the book. Also pisses me off that they removed most of the magical elements in the show. 

I will say that George RR Martin is sick. Particularly, his depiction of Dany was fucking gross. Some of her scenes felt like pedophilic fantasy tbh. 

But I can’t lie and say I didn’t enjoy the book as a whole… and I will be reading the whole series in time for his long awaited finale(s) to this damn story. 

I’m especially excited to meet Lady Stoneheart, and discover what Sansa’s true story is (the show runners are going to hell for giving her that rape plot).
