/lit/ - Literature

I'm nowhere near being a snob, especially with literature, but did anyone else try reading game of thrones and abandon ship shortly after?

I think I made it to chapter 5 before deciding it was a waste of time.

With all the great works in fantasy out there, it's kind of insulting when people praise this show so much.

To me, game of thrones is like sex and the city with dragons.

Does anyone else agree that Martin is a hack and his writing lacks depth and detail?

On a side note, I hear that this guys a staunch communist. Any truth to that? I lose respect for people when I find out they're retarded lol.
