*3.5 stars And after 2 months I finally finished it. Wasn't really thrilled with the introduction of new POVs, so I guess that's why it took me so long. IMO, this series could need a bit of a trim.

And you know how much I need canon, and closure. Now with all these characters, how will Martin ever wrap their storylines up?

After reading this book I felt a void. I don’t know how to explain it but almost like I was expecting the entire story lines to start emerging to start to lead up toward a climax of some sorts and then instead it provided all the multiple stories going on in all different directions and still felt lacking of something. Something I felt was or should be important was missing. I even had to force myself not to skip pages in case I would miss something. These books don’t get written fast enough for ...more
