I've hit the last third of the second book in my re-read. Lots of good stuff happening, the second half of this season on the show should be pretty good!
I had forgotten the details of Arya's story and how Vargo Hoat switches sides and joins up with the Starks (Roose Bolton and his men) after J'aqen helps Arya free the captured northmen. They fed Amory Lorch to the big black bear, I had forgotten that as well. Arya thinks that it's appropriate since he killed Yoren, and the bear that killed him is black like the Nights Watch. I am really curious where they'll go with Arya being Tywin's cupbearer since that is not in the books (she's Roose Bolton's cupbearer).
