The writing was fantastic and im really liking the political stuff in this fantasy world. It was slow but the slowness had a purpose so it didn't feel like it was dragging. The characters varied from sweet and innocent, to not so sweet and innocent, to morally gray which I personally loved. I loved seeing how the characters handled situations and grew from it.
Spoileralthough I do wish that Daenerys was the one to kill her brother Viserys, and I hope that Sansa is able to get out of Jofferys claws.
