I shouldn't have read the book first

In fact, it is habit to give 4 stars. I don't know how to rate it, and I can't say whether the second season is good or not. This is all because I read the book first. . So watching the show is a bit boring.
At the end of the first season, seeing the birth of the dragon is simply heart-wrenching, and the emotions of watching the show reach its climax. I can't wait for season 2 to air, so I found a book to read. Finished reading 1-4 in no time. In fact, when I watched Part 4, I was not very interested anymore, I just wanted to see how the plot would develop, because most of what I liked and what I was looking forward to came to nothing, most of the people died, and this world of ice and fire seems to have fallen into Darkness, no hope in sight.

I would rather not read the book, because the script is more concise and the plot is more concentrated. You can watch the drama first, and then read the book to supplement the background, which complements each other. But the other way around, the show loses a lot.
