He's not for all tastes, of course-- he totally goes for it theatrically with different voices for different characters. I love it. You haven't lived till you've heard the grizzled Dotrice act out Jon Snow's SPOILER REMOVED with the SPOILER REMOVED girl

i'm inclined to say just read the first three and stop, then wait for the last 4 to be finished to read together.

We bought the books, but then my (visually handicapped) husband realized he wasn't able to read the small letters. So I urged him to buy the Kindle package (for the ipad). He's so happy. :-)

So one of GRRM's stylistic choices that rilly bugs and at this point (middle of book 4) shows every sign of increasing is the way he peppers scenes with dialogue with a character's internal monologue, like,
I'd like to shove a dirk up your butt. "My Lord is too kind," sez someone or other.
