Make sure to let your editor know that many of us are still thinking of him and we appreciate him very much.
And the sweet summer child is still cheering for love...
"How are they feeding all these people?" Cassie with a better grasp of logistics than 90% of the fantasy writers out there.
"He killed the king of the hand" lol
"Everyone deserves second chances, except Joffrey." 😂
"I'm not on his side (but I am)." "And just tell him that he'll do therapy and stuff." Cassie, you are adorable.
6:18 "How are we feeding all these people?" That is an EXCELLENT question. Being a queen requires more than an army. It requires an entire functioning civilization. An army without farmers to feed it and miners and blacksmiths to arm it, will collapse very quickly. Probably another reason why she decided to take Yunkai.
A one handed man jumping into a pit with a bear to save a lady may be the most heroic and knightly act in the whole series.
Guys, she really said, "make friends with it." The heart is too pure
"Jamie, stop it! Stop making me like you!" 😂❤
