I liked Doran Martell a lot too – so different from Oberyn!! I just felt like his daughter wasn’t very well-developed as a character (in contrast to Asha Greyjoy, who hasn’t had much screentime either, but who felt real in a way that Princess Whosis did not!) mostly. I really liked Dorne as a PLACE, though.
Re: Sansa – I am going to have to read her chapters again to get more out of them. I do like that she’s becoming sort of a ‘faceless man’ herself, like Arya – subsuming her true identity in a false one. And I suspect she’s got a little Stockholm Syndrome going on at this point – Littlefinger has cut her off from everyone else who might have helped her. (Like, I think if she’d been in King’s Landing when Jaime came back, he would have honored his pledge and certainly would have helped her escape!)
And as for Aemon, I loved him so much. Sniffle! But it was a good death, if a sad one.
Final comment and I will stop spamming your LJ mercilessly ...
