Wow, didn't realize the Game of Thrones was so long. It is on my "to read list". Did you like it? Is it worth it?


message 1721: by Scott (new)

Scott Flicker | 1191 comments The game of thrones books (song of ice and fire series) are long fun reads. Very enjoyable.


message 1722: by Payten (new)

Payten | 22 comments I absolutely loved it and I'm not even a fantasy lover- or I wasn't I should say.
I HIGHLY recommend that you give it a shot!!! I doubt you'll be let down. I'm totally addicted and starting the second book already! Haha.


message 1723: by Maria (new)

Maria (mariah90602) | 2284 comments Thanks. I'll have to give them a shot. I'm not a huge fantasy lover either but I do enjoy those books from time to time. Next time I'm in the mood to read that genre, I'll definitely try Game of Thrones.
