Man, I've read a lot of chapters...
Alright. Arya. She is one badass little girl. I cheered for her through and through as she was speeding through the castle. When she "...stuck him with the pointy end," a shot of exhilaration shot through me. Seriously, that was quite possibly the best thing I've ever read in a book.
_________
Sansa... I hate her. I don't know why she pisses me off so much. She's interesting to read about, sure, but her character irks me. Possibly because of the way she lets herself be used, like a "proper woman." Would she show some guts and perhaps disobey the Queen? Maybe then she'd truly feel as bad as Arya.
_________
Catelyn and Robb... what can I say? Mother and son planning a war. That is just too frickin' cool. I can't wait to see how this goes.
_________
Tyrion finally came back to his father, to most thinking him dead. What a surprise everyone got... except for Lord Tywin. They have discussed plans, realized Robb was moving, and plan to use the clans to help them. This is getting good...

Jon and Lord Eddard
Okay, I have to admit - Martin just threw one of the best plot twists of the century at me. I seriously did NOT expect that. What twist, you ask?
Why, Jon Snow the steward, of course! That was possibly the most unexpected thing I've ever heard! I mean, I knew Thorne was an asshole, but wow...
But then the thought crept up about Jon's grooming for leadership, and I started to have my doubts about why he was selected steward. We shall see...
--------
Lord Eddard, wow, that was a semi-surprise. Martin really loves his twists, doesn't he? Littlefinger, in on the conspiracy, when we all believed he wasn't such a bad guy. The bastard had to pull Ned's knife on him! How devious :)
Man, I can't wait to finish Arya's chapter...

Bran - After The Fall
Bran seems to be recovering nicely after his push by the badass we all know as Jaime Lannister. However, on a ride with his brother and heir to Lordship of the House Stark, Robb, he encounters a less than friendly group of loners, 2 of which betrayed the black.
After a small scuffle (leaving many mauled by the direwolves and Bran with his throat nearly slit) Robb releases a tirade of negative energy on Theon Greyjoy, the smiling man who felled the one trying to cut down Bran. His smile turns to frown, but he just goes about pulling arrows from the ground.
On to the next chapter,
