I was disappointed in many of the characters, but found them difficult to keep separate due to the sheer numbers.Randolphnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304302673132222419.post-9892735112442836312011-05-05T13:24:17.699-04:002011-05-05T13:24:17.699-04:00Well, yes, I'll grant you that - through every...Well, yes, I'll grant you that - through every book Sansa acts as if she either has brain damage or is mentally ill....I'm hoping one day she'll wake up and kill Cersei.Julia Rachel Barretthttp://juliarachelbarrett.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304302673132222419.post-69566137640195670292011-05-04T12:50:42.119-04:002011-05-04T12:50:42.119-04:00@Julia; I figure it is possible someone might harb...@Julia; I figure it is possible someone might harbor the delusions Sansa has, but she holds to them so stubbornly. Joffrey and Cersei had her wolf killed and she still didn't figure out they were bad guys. The Lannisters killed dozens of her father's men in front of her, and she still didn't figure it out. She is delusional on this subject well past the point of believability unless you posit that she may actually be brain damaged.Aaron Poundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11747596648152141394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3304302673132222419.post-37602497274317539962011-05-04T12:42:20.116-04:002011-05-04T12:42:20.116-04:00I love the series, flaws and all.

Sansa reminds me of my star-struck daughter, so yes, I know that a girl like this can exist despite her upbringing.Julia Rachel Barretthttp://juliarachelbarrett.netnoreply@blogger.com
