Imagine being Gendry in that scene and having to be all like "damn, Arya, you fuckin' fine, all sexy with your tight body and horrific androgynous monster face. I would totally have sex with you." when all he really wants to do is fuck another 15 year old girl from Flea Bottom. Like seriously imagine having to be Gendry and not only lie there while Arya flaunts her disgusting body in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing her unshapely figure. Not only having to tolerate her monstrous fucking visage but her haughty attitude as everyone in Winterfell tells her she's SO BADASS and DAMN, ARYA LOOKS LIKE THAT?? because they're not the ones who have to sit there and watch her mannish fucking gremlin face contort into types of grimaces you didn't even know existed before that day. You've been fucking nothing but a healthy diet of young peasant girls with perfect bodies shaped by working in the fields all day. You've never even seen anything this fucking disgusting before, and now you swear you can taste the sweat that's breaking out on her dimpled stomach as she sucks it in to writhe it suggestively at you, smugly assured that you are enjoying the opportunity to get get laid one last time and revel in her "statuesque (for that is what she calls herself)" beauty, the beauty she worked so hard for while baking people into pies. And then she asks for another round, and you know you could kill every single person in this castle before the eunuchs could put you down, but you sit there and endure, because you're fucking Gendry. You're not going to lose your future lordship over this. Just bear it. Close your eyes and bear it.

I think each one is better than the one after it except 3 > 2 and 6 > 5

>tfw reading the books now and separating them into 10 sections and imagining each section of chapters as a tv series with high budget and accurate casting >currently at ACoK which would be season 2 of my imaginary tv adaptation >currently at the chapter which would mark the end of the 4th episode in my imaginary tv adaptaion Is it autism? No joke, I'm actually enjoying it better this way.
Then you get the point where the fat man runs out of ideas, stalls for 10 years writing bullshit, then gives up on the series entirely with no book in 10 years

I did the same 3 years ago, but you can't make 10 episodes out of one book. book 1 needs 14 episodes, book 2 needs 15 episodes, book 3 needs 20 episodes, book 4 actually can be done with 10 episodes and book 5 needs 19 episodes. If you must do 10 episodes per season then the first 5 books adapted page by page would result in 8 seasons.
Kek that is the sad part. Though, I still have many pages to go until I reach that point, I hope he shits out the next book soon. I don't want my imaginary tv series to stop mid way.
did anyone try reading one/two characters at a time?
Gabriel Sanders
I agree it helps. Helps me plan my reading schedule. So that when I sit down to read I read a handful of chapters at a time. For a series with multiple POVs, it really helps with the enjoyment.

is this real?

That's quite a fleet Dany has, sure would have come in handy against Pirate boy if only they remembered she had them
Book 1 is fine with 10. I already finished my imaginary book accurate version of season 1 and the pacing was great. Book 2 is also fine with 10. Book 2 is exactly 7 chapters per episode from prologue to Bran's last chapter. I'm currently at the mid way point of A Clash of Kings. I have not read book 3 yet but I'd still like to imagine it as a 10 episode season where a LOT of shit happens. I'm going with the combined version of AFFC and ADWD for my imaginary season 4 with 10 episodes. I just split the whole chunk into 10 sections and try to read it that way. I know it gets very wordy in the later books but pacing wise it shouldn't be a problem because the actual plot and dialogue is overshadowed by gurm's food descriptions. Besides, no way am I leaving out half the characters in season 4. It is going to be a combined thing.
