I skim a lot also as of late. Jon Snow would be my favorite I think...or his wolf, i'm undecided. I just finished the part where Tyrion bests Lysa and her freak son by having the guy fight for him and win. Don't tell me, but i;m fairly certain Lysa is to blame for the hand's (Jon) death as well as the attempt on Bran, using the easily disliked Lanisters as her fall family.
