I tried ASOIAF a long, long time ago, well before the television show aired, because I adore fantasy and it was getting raves. However, I only made it about 2/3 of the way through the first book. I appreciated the story line, and the complexity, and everything, but I couldn't find a single character that I liked. And as much as I love story and plot, character comes first to me. (I'm well aware this isn't the case for most people. Just for me.) I've thought about trying the television show and seeing if that captures me and makes me interested in the characters such that I can read the books, but I haven't been able to bring myself to do that yet.
I think that She's Never Coming Back sounds fascinating, though. It's at the library near where I work on Saturdays, so I think I'll have to check it out. Thanks.
