A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.
A bunch of friends who actually got me into the show (leading me to purchase and consume the five books last winter) have absolutely no interest in ever reading any of them.
One of them even has the first few books on tape.
Can't. Be. Bothered.
are you looking to read show spoilers but not book spoilers?
or vice versa?

Book 3
I literally threw my device (android tablet) away from me when the Red Wedding happened, and the Ned Stark death didn't really phase me since it seemed inevitable. Red Wedding is definitely a shock moment, which makes it worse.

Best thing about the Red Wedding is that, on reread, you realize that Martin spent the whole book hinting that something bad was going to happen at the wedding. Like, every time it comes up someone mentions that Frey is pissed and might do something nasty. It's just that the characters saying it think that "nasty" means something like pissing in the soup.
Ros the Exposition whore is no match against Shae the Funny Whore

hilarious pranks! I'm your sister
book 3
Well... (Book spoilers for Storm of Swords and into Feast for Crows)
maybe we could put that in the title and op
I've pretty much just not clicked on spoilers in this thread because I recognize that's not necessarily intuitive
It totally is
of my tears
oh damn, didn't know you hadn't read these skullsy
yeah I'll mark mine from now on, but this thread is going to be murder if you click any spoilers
I'm not reading them because emily and I are watching each season, so I'm waiting until each season ends to read the corresponding novel

anyone older than a week or from the previous season(s) is fair game, open
anything from the books marked by the book it's a spoiler from
if that's draconian I can just not click any spoilers
you're reading the books after the season
spoilers would contain anything that's not aired yet
why would you click any spoilers anyway?
but you're right
Ros is in it.
Sex is to the show as food is to the books
All of them.
"HBO"
*golf clap*
I hope she's a POV, even.
I hope she's the first POV in Winds of Winter.
