SI.com: For you the Starks are heroes, and you told us a couple of months ago that they would be the NFL equivalent of the Giants since the Giants are your team. If we extrapolate this, who is Eli Manning in your universe?
(George R R)Martin: Eli Manning would probably be someone like Loras Tyrell, the Knight of Flowers, who has a bigger brother, Lord Garlan Tyrell, who is an even better swordsman than he is (laughs). So you have that brotherhood relationship there.
Oh, wow, someone else knows about Brambly Hedge! Yay, M! Such a big part of my childhood. Cute little mousies, and *look* at all of the detail.

The only author whose collections are each a single day’s reading.
Fantastic cover.
Noted: I would not want John Watson to be my doctor. Guy is always running off somewhere and leaving someone else in charge of his practice. What if someone shows up who really, really wants to see Dr. Watson?! I am still enjoying the heck out of these stories. I’m going to watch some of the films, next.
So much for “feast for crows.” come at me, dystopian NJ!
oh, storm of swords
Oh, darling, you certainly went out with a bang, didn’t you? And quite a body count! And revelations! Unexpected revelations! I don’t think I’ve ever read a book *this* cinematic before. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll be on the proverbial edge of your seat.
it’s the little things
Ohmanohmanohman, a couple of different stories have finally intersected! People I know meeting other people I know! I absolutely squealed out loud, yes I did.
so, storm of swords
I LOVE IT. But it is *such* a bummer of a book! And I’m only at page 416. I will note that the instance of “eyes melting and running down [his] cheeks” is pretty bad-ass, though.

What part are you up to?
Just “met” the second Jeyne.
You are a big fat fatty and there are still hundreds of pages to go. Stupid engrossing book.
