Posting my reading order again for a new generation of /grrm/

I'm rereading ASoIaF one POV at a time. I try to imagine I have no knowledge of the books so I can experience the narrative unfolding in broken up, personal ways. I'm still on the first POV, Tyrion. Here's the order I intend to go:
>Will
prologue for the series
>Tyrion
"main" character, explores every general area/plot
>Catelyn
the WotFK from the North's POV
>Ned
what really went down with Ned and the start of the war, anyway
>Jamie
compare/contrast Ned with Jaime
>Brienne
logical followup to Jaime, nice Honor Trilogy
>Merret
one off to set a tone for Lady Stoneheart and wrap up WotFK POVs
>Sansa
Brienne is searching for her, so let's see where she disappeared off to
>Jon Snow
gets mentioned in one of/the last Sansa chapter, and he's Lord Commander of the Night's Watch now, let's see what he's doing up there and clear the rumors of what's happening up beyond the wall
>Arya
Jon thinks of Arya, thinks she's getting involved twice, let's see what Arya is really up to after she vanished in book one
>Melisandre
Arya saw the black brother in Braavos, and is also doing spooky magic stuff, so let's cut back to the Wall
>Cressen
let's wind the clock back on Melisandre and see how this Stannis stuff really started
>Davos
follow the Stannis story, then the North Remembers story to an extent
>Chett
Jon was away for the battle at the Fist of the First men, so let's go to Chett real quick to see how the Night's Watch is outside of Jon
>Sam
Let's follow Sam out of the North; the Night's Watch has been thoroughly covered now let's sail back South
>Pate
it's Pate from Sam's chapter :)
>Aeron
the ironborn are attacking the Reach, so let's see what they're up to
>Victarion
This Ironborn was sent East to the Dragon Queen that gets mentioned from time to time, so let's see if he makes it to her
>Asha
another Ironborn from the Kingsmoot, and then more of the Stannis plot
>Theon
I thought Theon died? He showed up in Stannis' camp though? What happened to Theon?
>Varamyr
Theon is maybe experiencing some spooky Northern Magic stuff, let's do Varymyr real quick
>Bran
now this is the real spooky northern magic stuff. What's lil bro been up to?
>Cersei
she's the catalyst for Bran's story, and an antagonist for many others, time for her to have her focus
>Areo
Myrcella+Dorne time
>Arys
Myrcella+Dorne time 2
>Arianne
the real Dorne POV, also leading into...
>Jon Connington
so those guys Tyrion trolled really went West, let's see how that all went down
>Kevan
damn, the entire story has been a set up for the Dragon Queen I guess.
>Quentyn
Let's go to the Dragon Queen through Dorne POV
>Barristan
the last POV before Dany, and one with an aged perspective of the entire story
>Daenerys
let's see how this little girl became the Mother of three dragons

Just finished Tyrion A Clash of Kings, impressions so far next post >>
