I'm almost halfway through A Feast for Crows.  I've never read "fantasy" of the Elf and Fairy variety before (and never will again, I couldn't even read Eyes of the Dragon when I was in my King phase that we all must go through).  I'm learning lots of new words!

Cheesy definitely share your thoughts!
like with all books you read after you've seen the thing in video, I'm picturing the actors in my head and Brinne and Arya are nowhere near as ugly in the show as they are in the books....and that's weird in my head.

The excessive amount of times he writes about the clothes and environment in extreme detail is....bothersome.  yes yes, the doublet is lovely, move on!

I'm not bothered by the differences(zombie Cat, fake Arya, the Vale stuff, the Dorne stuff), I like it actually.  Maybe not zombie Cat.

are the differences in the second half of A Feast of Crows or in the last book?  Or have I missed something?  I haven't noticed too many differences in the Aryas.

I generally agree with all that.

One of my bigger issues with the scene was.....why the funk didn't Rickon serpentine?  He just ran in a straight line....I suppose "fear" may have made him momentarily stupid and certainly he had to flee Winterfell too young to have learned how to lessen your chances of getting hit by arrows AND he didn't necessarily know it was just one guy shooting arrows at him....but still.  And why didn't Jon yell something about it.
