Friggin' done...

Ok, I'm more than halfway through this book. Gotta keep going...it's not that its a horrible book. But, I think I'm getting tired of reading long series composed of giant brick books.

Still reading...the more characters this series gets, the more each chapter makes you work to reorient yourself in space and time. That's one of my issues with this book: having to work to get my bearings at the start of each damned chapter. Reading in this genre should not be so much work, IMHO. I understand Martin wants to elevate the genre to more literary realms, but come on...oh well, back to the battle...

Still slowly working my way through this...the way I figure, Martin's not going to release the next book any time soon, so why should I rush through this one? Taking my good old time and that's just fine by me.

I continue on my long, slow slog through Westeros and beyond. That's not to say that I'm not enjoying the journey. But it's slow progress, and that's all my fault.
