Even if you aren’t normally a fan of this kind of thing, try this experiment:

Step One: Buy paperback of book one of George RR Martin’s “Game of Thrones”

Step Two: Keep it in bathroom.

Step Three: Enjoy the morning.

Seriously, each chapter is told from the point of view of a differant character, and it’s in very easy to digest snippets. I can’t recommend it enough, and I read *a lot*.

I have a two year back log of books to read.

I read the first four novels in this series when they came out. Extremely good, but frustrating, as Martin kept taking longer and longer to bring out the next volume, and then stalled with Book IV.

Now he’s started it up again, years later, to go along with the video version. I don’t know if it would be worth going back to it or not, frankly. I’ll think about it. But I don’t want to do it until the damned series is finished, this time.

My #1 son and d-i-l gave me the first four books of "Song of Ice and Fire" for Christmas. I simply devoured them!! Got the fifth book from the library. At some point I'll have to buy a paperback copy of the fifth one so I can have them all and re-read them at my leisure.

Haven't seen the series yet, because we don't have HBO. I might have to wait until our library gets the set on DVD.
