[Poll #1761526]I bought 5 books on my kindle today! A Song of Fire and Ice books 1-4 boxed set for $30 and The Hunger Games for $5. SO EXCITED! I read the first 2 books of the Sookie Stackhouse books. I feel kind of meh about them? I mean, Sookie gets beaten up a bit too much and I always feel awkward reading sex scenes, and some of the stuff is kind of weird. But I have the first 12 books on my kindle so I'll probably keep reading. I love how it took me a really long time to reach my reading goal of 85 last month and in just 13 days I'm TWO books away from my monthly goal of 100. Less computer time really does wonders for my reading.

A Song of Ice and Fire is fantastic, I'm reading the fourth book right now.

I started the first Sookie Stackhouse book last year, but I got about halfway through and just didn't feel interested enough to finish it. The sex scenes were definitely super awkward.

Sansa ♥

I'm on the third book (1/2 way through). I've heard a lot of talk about the Red Wedding and I'm not there yet. I have a feeling something awful is going to happen...

Did you watch the show?

Oh, the Red Wedding. Well, it's certainly not unicorns and rainbows.

Yup! That's how I started reading the books.

There is a graphic out there where someone took the Dances with Dragons cover and changed the words from "Dances with Dragons" to "Everybody Dies." GRRM is such a troll lol (http://www.thatwasnotveryravenofyou.com/post/7286834372/grrm-you-troll-you) (Not a spoiler for DwD by the way - just a comment on the way he kills of characters).

Me too. TBQH I didn't like Sansa in the show. The books turned me around on that.
