@tutututututuru No but I’ve been meaning to start them for so long!! Better than the show?
I’m not okay with spoiling the books to be honest. I’ve always been a fan of reading a series first, then watching the film/tv adaptation, although that didn’t happen with GoT. So I’m kind of disappointed about not being able to catch up on the series first, but maybe this’ll be the motivation I need to just sit down and read them all!
@lyannastark AYEEE that profile pic and username! Favorite character?
@lyannastark My friend who got in EA said that her decision came out at 4 PM EST (3 PM CST then). I don’t see why they would have different times for RD.
@Kasami yes, the books are better! I was like you, I watched the first four seasons of the show first before I got into the books. I have to say, GRRM has a way with words. So many countless times the books just make you giddy because of the epicness. I think any fan of the show would like them! They go way more in depth and are far more fleshed-out. Also, the showrunners have made a lot of controversial changes that I don’t necessarily agree with.
I would bet $100 @lyannastark has read the books. Please prove me right!
@Scriant is correct with the time
@Scriant I’m going to be in my least liked class at that time whyYYYYYYYY (1PM PST)
I have! @tutututututuru
Last year RD tho they came out at 5pm EST
I’d prefer 5pm EST so I could be at home…
@lyannastark awesome! Nobody would have that name unless they knew R+L=J. Which is your favorite book of the series?
@tutututututuru A Storm of Swords!
@lyannastark I’d have to agree. It’s just jam-packed. The last 450 pages, after, you know, are just an absolute thrill.
Were you following GRRM’s TWOW update debacle on New Year’s? He promised at the beginning of the day to make an update, after years, on the progress, and had been making updates on the hour every hour on various things in his life. Then he goes silent for like, 8 hours. I was just up refreshing every 2 min until like 2 in the morning until the post came. It was like another college rejection lol
@lyannastark @kasami GAME OF THRONES IS LIFE. THINKING ABOUT REWATCHING THE ENTIRE SHOW TO MAKE TIME GO FASTER. SEASON 6 IS ALSO SO HYPEJFKDSdsalf
Did you see the new trailer!!?? It was great!
@ThatGirlCoder -watches thefinebros game of thrones spoiler in 9 minutes-
@lyannastark they’re actually _______ CONFIRMED
EDIT: Like not even kidding. It’s crazy actually. I always thought Cleganebowl was so cool, but it’s BASICALLY actually confirmed to happen. On the show at least. Holy crap
Question on a scale of 1-10 (10 being may the odds be ever in your favor) how bad is it that I never submitted a why UChicago essay???
