So what is everyone's favorite POV to read? Least favorite? This includes past too. I'll start! My favorite would probably be Bran. Weird favorite I know but I always found his story interesting, especially after meeting the Reeds and going North. Now that he's training under Bloodraven? Hell yeah. Runner up would probably be Davos  Least favorite is any Greyjoy that's not Theon. Just don't like em. How about you guys? |

Yeah I don't like Greyjoys that much either :/ My favorite chapters are Cersei's. She is just so horrible and paranoid, it's so entertaining to read |

My favourite POV to read is probably Cersei, because her batshit insanity was so hilarious. Her chapters were a great read.
My least favourite was initially Davos (*ducks*). I just found him super-dull and more of a window into Stannis and Melisandre rather than an actual character. Even after that changed, I still struggled to get through his chapters. But. That was until I read AFFC. Holy fuck. The abundance of Greyjoys was just too much. If I had to pick a least favourite, Damphair's chapters would be a great insomnia cure, but found Victarion to be perhaps the least likeable POV of the entire series.

My favorite has to be Davos - he's interesting himself and he hangs out with Stannis and team Dragonstone! ..and he also meets Wyman!
My least favorite is Brienne or Bran - both started out so painfully boring, but are FINALLY doing something!

Favorite: Tyrion.
Least: I don't dislike any POV. They all add to the story. In one way or another.

Jaime, Arya, and Jon are my favorite POVs. I actually enjoy most of them.
The Dorne ones are just okay, they're very hit and miss for me.
My least favorite are Euron, Victorian, and Damphair because I find them pointless and not interesting at all.

I think quite a few people find Davos' chapters a bit dull. Sure, he's a great person and all, but tbh not a lot happens in most of his chapters. He mostly sits in dungeons  Enjoyed his Blackwater chapters though, thought they were really good. i didn't mind Damphair's chapters actually. I think he is really quite an intriguing character. Sort of the High Sparrow/Melisandre of the Drowned God. |

I quite enjoy Jaime and Cersei, and pre-AFFC Arya
I've had a strong bore for Bran chapters since ACOK

Favorite: Reek, mostly because of the awesome people around him.
Least favorite: Bran, a boring character in a boring story that took five books to finally amount to something.

Oouch, poor Bran. He is my favourite actually. Along with Cat.
Cersei is the most entertaining, but not my favourite. She's hilarious though.
Least favourite is probably Tyrion and Jon and Areo Hotah

Arya was my first love in the series, POV wise
Tyrion was intriguing (but trying by ADWD)
Ned, I wanted to strangle his stubborn, honorable ass....right until he was beheaded, though I love him.
Jaime became maybe close to tied for first with Arya once he started POVs
I do enjoy Cat POVs as well, although I thought she was a bit maudlin in her last, oops.
I like Jon, but he has the curse of well, being deep in Winter, and I hate being in the cold, and reading about it is even worse, LOL
Bran.....suffers the same fate for me, and can be boring, but I mostly like him.
Davos, I adore, at times he can be boring, but I get a kick out of his dungeon tour. He needs to write a guide book.......Touring the Dungeons of Westeros.....when this is all over.
Theon and Asha grew on me, although Theon ACOK, makes me need a shower, as can Cersei, although, she can be funny as hell.
I, too, groan at too much Ironborn in a row, but after awhile, Vic cracks me up.
The more I reread, though, the more I can develop affection for most of the POVs, affection for parts of them anyway....minus The Damphair.
And, my feelings can change with a new reread, there is always that.

My favorite POV's change with each book, so
Game of Thrones: Ned (favorite), I guess Dany would be my least but I still liked her chapters in that one.
A Clash of Kings : Catelyn/Davos (favorite), Dany (least except for the House of the Undying)
A Storm of Swords: Catelyn/Jaime (favorite), Dany (least, now her chapters are boring)
A Feast for Crows: Cersei/Jaime (favorite), Sam (least)
A Dance with Dragons: Theon/Davos/Jon (favorite), Dany/Tyrion (least)

I didn't care for Bran's POV at first, but I started to appreciate them a lot more after the Red Wedding because of how much he reminisced about his family. When I went back to reread everything, I enjoyed him more the 2nd time around.

I should add this, not that he's my favorite, but I must be one of the very few:
Hotah fans, LOL
I love his quiet simplicity.

Hotah the walking CCTV camera He's a sweet man who loves his Little Princess Arianne and his AX, LOL I never know with him what exactly his feeling are, with regard to Arianne. Is it a paternal/familial affection he has for her? Or romantic? I'm pretty useless when it comes to things like that, hah |

Or romantic? I'm pretty useless when it comes to things like that, hah I think it's a fatherly type of love, he seems straightforward about that, IMO He has to remind himself that she is NOT exactly a littel girl, and that's because in his mind, she is, I think. He reminds me of an Favorite Uncle or Godfather. It's just that simple and appears to be part of his simplicity. |

Of all the Dornish people, Hotah is definitely my favorite.

Enjoyed his Blackwater chapters though, thought they were really good.
