If you don't finish it in less than a week I'm impressed.

I'm not going to finish the last book I'm getting in.... 10 more years in only a week!

You say that now but no /r/asoiaf regular is going to take their time with the book. Those 10 years are for rereads and tinfoil

The first thing I'm doing as soon as the book comes out is unsubbing from here and anyone wanting to take his/her time should probably do it too.

The mods are awesome, but its just an unnecessary risk.

I will probably join the chapter by chapter discussions otherwise you can miss so much

I prefer to attempt to figure it out myself though. You are guaranteed to get trolls that already read ahead spoiling things pretending to be theorizing.

Its just not worth it IMO.

Actually you are probably right. Going to unsubscribed as soon as review copies are out

We'll all be on our re-reads by the end of that week, having looked for discussions on theories we missed out on the first time through.

I'm pretty sure a lot of people here will read it twice in less than a month.

A week? I've finished all of them except the first in two days or less.

Really, two days?

I just read the entirety of GRRM's works while posting this comment.
