I thought the same but a re-read and changed my mind. 4&5, when read chronologically are incredible. Always thought 3 was amazing.

Very glad there are opinions different from mine

I re read books 4 and 5 as the FeastDance order and it was great. I actually think there's loads of great tv stuff in the books - definitely enough to base two seasons of tv on (with maybe some insertions a la Bran in Crasters keep).
