As scary as the sexual violence is to me, I think it is very believable in this world and helps to show people that the real monsters aren’t just beyond the wall they are human beings capable of very evil things. I couldn’t even list all of the triggers for sexual abuse in this book, so please use caution when reading. *insert thought provoking parallel about how this mirrors our world and makes it even sadder*Īs always, I want to state a disclaimer, like with all of the books in this series, that there are many very graphic rape and gang-rape scenes. Sometimes having a heavy pocketbook is more important than being a good person. Many of these characters with good hearts and souls have such terrible things happen to them, while liars and killers prosper. This book is heart-wrenching, and not just because this book contains the Red Wedding, but because this book leaves you with a sense of hopelessness. #readASOIAF Read-Along – Hosted by Riley from Riley Marie, Elizabeth from Liz Loves Literature, and Kayla from BOOKadoodles.
