You know i can't wait for the other episoides,but don't want it to end either.
I've read the books and i sit and watch
to see how different or the same as the books,so if you haven't read the books
you would not know the difference, some times things are one way in begining but
the out come might be the same as in the
books i enjoy the show so much.
