Honestly a little bit of a let down. Really slow. I get that this was supposed to show WHY snow is the way he is but honestly he has been an awful ignorant hypocrite from day one and nothing about his actions really “changed”. Most of this was all stuff we got as little tid bits through the rest of the series. Just felt really unnecessary. I also listened to the audio version and I couldn’t stand the songs being read back to me.
