Cat/Ned is one of my biggest OTPs. I love them sfm.

But yeah, I think the books take a different approach to relationships than most series.

I miss Ned so much, he was easily one of my favorite characters. And I want to know what's going on with Cat! I feel like GRRM is trolling me with A Feast for Crows— you can't drop a bombshell like that and then ignore it for the entirety of the next book! FFFUUUUU

The way the books approach relationships meshes with the setting very well. For the lion's share of the characters, practicality trumps sentiment every time. Marriage is a political maneuver meant to curry favor, to buy armies, titles or land, and it's just so completely divorced from what we consider the norm and the way it's usually portrayed in other books. I love it.

Agreed. It really works with the setting and lines up with what life was probably like for this social class in the time frame.


The more points people bring up about this series the more interested I am in knowing how it ends for certain character.
