Read through the 3rd book not watching the show but I think that this is
the Red Viper? I know his woman (Ellisaria Sand) is definitely bi.

Oh yeah, maybe that's who I'm thinking of.

Almost finished with the first book, like 160 pages from finishing. I enjoy the books, but it's going along slowly because I don't think i've read such large books before where as here it takes me like 3-5 minutes to just read two pages. I was hoping that the next four would go easier and faster, but they're all larger...

Spoiler: Season 3 Episode 4
Mormonts expressions when he was trying to kill Rast were truly spectacular, especially the second picture. I don't know if I am worthy to be the judge, but this looked like good acting on Cosmos's part.

At least for me, what I found was that it took me a long time to read the first half of the first two books because they do a lot more set up, but the second halves flew by. The third book is all speed and despite its size is amazing throughout.

Finished the first book, finally. Onto ACOK...

Wondering if I should stop watching Season 3 until i've finished the third book. Patience, does it exist?

I don't know. Why would you stop, since you have already started? That's how I feel when I read manga while watching anime. I can't wait for the anime to catch up anymore. xD

I should read the book though.

Season 3's been split, anyway. So you'll not have all of the 3rd book in season 3. Book 3's THE BEST though, but it might be fun to see it play out on screen.

I repeat, Book 3 is the best. That is not an indication of poor quality of the other books, just there is so much awesome in Book 3 that Faraday should have broken his Storm of Swords game into two.

another great episode, although i think if i hadn't read the book then Ser Beric's resurrection would have been kind of confusing. My wife is disappointed about
no patchface, but I think he would have come across as too silly on TV
not to mention it's probably a good idea to limit minor characters (assuming he is minor)

I think episode 4 remains the top episode of the season, but this was still another very good episode. I think it's been the best season yet so far.

Good episode. One complaint. Loras is supposed to be the guy that says "once the sun has set, no candle can replace it." So why the efff did he fall into Littlefinger's honeypot. NO! That is completely out of character. Do not like. Other than that it was a good episode though.

Dany is EVERYTHING! I am living for her. Also, Arya is amazing. Brienne also. Basically all the women, except Cersi.

Lol, Tywin is just asking for his own children to backstab him, all three seemingly don't like him anymore.
