The first time I read A Game of Thrones I burned through it...I read the first three books in two weeks, and the fourth book in two weeks (I wasn't as much a fan of the fourth book.)
I'm rereading it now, and taking my time a bit more... the part I'm at now is pretty much right before all hell breaks loose, and I'm enjoying everyone being together (kind of) and, you know...alive.
Arya is far and away my favorite. She's...plucky. Fearless and spirited, and a big tomboy. Textbook opposite of Sansa, who only irritates me.
Jon & Tyrion are also favorites of mine. I'm paying more attention to Dany this time around, as well. And I absolutely loathe Cersei. Really, I don't think I've ever hated a fictional character as much.
The rest I'll save for when I finish.
