I accidentally told a friend the no one dies in their own POV chapters when discussing Jon Snow (he had seen him die in the show but was only on book one or two at the time). He then came to me after the red wedding and was all "HAH YOU'RE WRONG CAT DIED IN HER OWN CHAPTER!"

No no has stayed dead, though. It's not just "didn't die in their own POV." It's died in their own POV and stayed dead. That's the loophole.

Which combined version are you working off of? This one?: http://boiledleather.com/post/259025541 ... rder-for-a If so, any thoughts? I'm undertaking a complete re-read and just finished ASOS, and am planning to try the combined AFFC/ADWD.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
