I read the first book and while I thought it was technically pretty good and it held my interest, I got negative fun out of it. The authorial emotional cockteasing sure is engaging but I don't know at one point one is supposed to derive any enjoyment from being a GoT fan. It's not that it's too ~edgy~ for me either; I tend to enjoy darker stuff. I just didn't enjoy the storytelling. I told myself I'd maybe try the next book in a year or so, and guess what? I never got around to it. Never watched the TV show either.

This is the second comment of yours where I'm like, "yes! Yes! Yes!"

There were things that I really loved about the first book (e.g. Ned Stark's story arc. I do legitimately think it's absolutely brilliant), but overall, it fell flat for me and my enjoyment was negligible. I've said I'll get around to the rest of the series, but...I haven't. And I've lapped up volumes from other series in the same amount of time, so I know it's neither procrastination nor a lack of funds.

I just don't truly care about any of the surviving characters, and I don't care where the overall plot goes -- particularly since I damn well know it's not gonna be about the Whitewalkers, and that's what I actually wanted to read about.
