I really liked this book and i get why it's considered one of the best in the series. I really liked the themes they deal with and jamie and davos chapters were my favourites.
However i find some of the sex scenes useless and in some cases even creepy. I don't get why we needed intimate scenes of dani, a 15 year old, when they do nothing for the story or the character. I'm not against intimate scenes and i think they can actually help with getting a better understanding of the character, for example the relationship between tyrion and shae, and even Jon's guilt for leaving the night's watch (it was However still a little creepy).
