Review: A Clash of Kings


A Clash of Kings
A Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



New characters and New POVs,

There's Davos which I really liked.
Melisandre, I don't really know. One thing I learned from reading this series is to NOT judge the character without reading their POVs. Coz like Jon Snow, we know nothing. Which reminds me of Ygritte...and No, for the record, I'm not THAT into her. I mean she's feisty, brave, and tough---but I sort of got annoyed with all the "You know nothing, Jon Snow"--as if!
Then there's Theon. He seemed like an okay guy on the first book, on this one---he's such an a**hole.
Brienne of Tarth. Her, I loved. Her loyalty. Her skills. Everything. I just hate it when every sentence involving her points out her ugliness. We get it already!

Meera and Jojen and Osha; characters that really stood out on this book.

I got a new favorite character now, Ha-Ha. (dangerous words). TYRION Lannister. Gahd! Gotta love the Imp.

The most remarkable character for me on the first book was the Dancing Master---for this book, it's Jaqhen H'gar. I thought he was great. I am looking forward to seeing him again (yeap, I've read some spoilers).

As of this moment, I am more than halfway through A Storm of Swords but I felt the strong need to write something for this one. Just to make myself remember.

P.S. I still hate Littlefinger.
