Honestly, I hope the books will go in a different direction than the show. Don't get me wrong, it's good despite being so different from the books, but lately I've been feeling like some things are done just to appease the fans.
Littefinger dying was awful. Besides the fact I loved him as a character, his death was extremely uncharacteristic. He wouldn't have groveled like he did. And all these stupid jumps between areas? Come on.
I liked Littlefinger too. He was a prick but damn was he a genius, a brilliant mind excelling at the Game. That's why I'm impatiently waiting for the new book and hoping it will be different.
I actually don't think he was good at the game. I think people thought he was good, and he thought he was good. What made it this way is his skill at manipulating and bluffing, but he built his tower too high without a foundation so the wind of Sansa just knocked it all down.
Sansa is still a little bitch in the books though, can't wait until she gets badass, not necessarily like in the show but just... less prissy than she is at this point in the books
