I tapped out after A Feast for Crows. The decision to split the originally planned book into an "all the character POVs you're not really that invested in" book and an "all the character POVs you care most about" book--to be published six years later (bringing the grand total of years I was supposed to wait to read about the characters I was most interested in to a little over a decade)--was the deal-breaker for me.

I stopped watching the show after season three. The books were about so much more than the gore and boobs fest (even though they were certainly featured) HBO has turned it into.

I don't think he'll ever finish the books, to be honest. Once HBO reveals his planned ending, there'll be no impetus for him to finish. The story will already be told.

The first three books were great. Then the wheels simply fell off the bus. *shrug*
