I'm halfway through A Dance with Dragons and I LOVE the world that GRRM created. It's so interesting and rich that sometimes I think living in it would be awesome despite the fact that you can be murdered or raped at any time and everyone seems like an asshole.

I really enjoy the random characters...BECAUSE NOTHING IS RANDOM. A friend of mine that I convinced to watch the show also complained about the random characters so I'll tell you the same thing I told them...everyone is important somehow. Everyone is tied to the same plot. Everything is related. Some characters showing up in one storyline will move to another. I was bored to death with the Dornish plotline in book 4 until about halfway through and then it became evident how much that part mattered.

The best characters are still Tyrion, Jon Snow, Aria and Daenerys.
