I read this whole section in one day and my brain is starting to blur all the things!

Jaime chapter was definitely my favorite, I was wondering how he's handle the stand off with The Blackfish. There is always a third option, and it's good to see him taking a different route.

The Arya chapter was great (Cat in the Canals), but it felt like we didn't actually learn much even though it was very entertaining. Was good to know that she was who Samwell chatting with on the night he stood up to the singing Night Watch dude (wow, I can't remember anyone's name!).

I'm again confused about people that come up in the Brienne chapter. Gendry I got, and I'm impressed she figured out who he likely is. But the people she is fighting at the end of the chapter.. cant' remember who they are. The folks that took her and Jaime prisoner? There are so many outlaws and bandits , I can't keep them straight other than "outlaws and bandits".

Oh my Cersei. She's a piece of work. Saying she is doing everything for Tommen, when it's more vanity and power hungry stuff. I wasn't clear if anything from the musician was to be taken as truth (they seemed to torture him a lot), didn't super feel like it and that is all very uncomfortable. She doesn't care about people being hurt, like all the non-Tyrion beheaded dwarves... I mean, isn't it wrong to do that? Is there no remorse in her at all? ugh. All that said, it was insightful to hear the predictions from the maegi/Maggy about her life and to see what has played out, and what is still in play. I think she is misinterpreting of the predictions. Is it a spoiler to say a guess on that front? Maybe I will leave it to the liveshow. Don't want to ruin anything for anyone (and I could totally be wrong!).

It's weird there is so little left in the book, and it feels like there will be lots of threads hanging. I really hope not, but it feels like it. Only a few more chapters to go!!
