User blog comment:Mesmermann/Bryan Cogman: From books to Game of Thrones/@comment-4463619-20120613045025

I'm just nearing the end of Book 5 now, and although I feel frustrated that certain characters have not appeared yet or won't appear at all, i'm glad that the show isn't completely predictable for me and anyone else who read the books. I'm willing to sacrifice my wish for the show to be accurate in order to keep myself entertaine and intereste... and a little confused of course, as I'm sure we all are.
