There’s no denying that it is a very good book, and clearly strong source material for the HBO show. 

I did not like it as much as the first, but it was not bad. 

Idk. There’s something about these books that scream “this was written by a man!!!” I could give about 58 examples but I’d rather die than think about them.

Again, just like the first book, the discussion of underaged sex and sexuality will turn your stomach. It’s really not doing what Georgey thinks it’s doing. It’s pretty vile.

Other than that, the relationships and politics are quite interesting! Would not read again, but mostly happy I read it once.

I enjoyed it. It’s a bit confusing at times and there’s so many characters. Sometimes I wish I could just stay on a single character instead of flipping to one character to another’s pov but this book is more plot driven.

Barely anything interesting happened for most of the book, unless you count someone (a woman/a child) being raped every second chapter as "interesting".
Daenerys', Theon's and Davos's chapters were the best ones.
