Game of Thrones Casting: RED VIPER

Author: Anonymous / Labels: , , ,

So, I read some articles and GRRM's blog about some big hoopla.

Apparently, a lot of people are upset and freaking out over the fact that some actor has been cast in the role of the Red Viper of Dorne.

Just the name sounds sort of mysterious and seductive, at the same time. I don't know who Pedro Pascal is, but I did read up on him on IMDB. I say, give the guy a chance. So many of the actors and actresses that were cast in the first season were unknown.

I am stoked to know that with every coming week, there seems to be a little snippet of Game of Thrones news, whether it be casting, scouting out of locations or Comic Con junkets.

SWEET!

Kobo Reader vs Books

Ah, July. One of my favourite months. Summer time, friends, family and lots of things to do.

I came across one of those Kobo readers during one of my jaunts to Chapters. Hm. While it looks nice, I just don't think I could purchase one.

Call me old school, but there's something nostalgic about the way a book looks, feels and smells. I like turning the pages. I like looking at the front and back covers. And reading the inserts.

Yup, I'll take my flesh and blood, big books, to have and to hold and stack them on my bookshelf!

I like big books and I cannot lie! Now, where the heck am I going to put my Hedge Knight books?! I need a bigger book shelf!
