I haven't read the books, so I couldn't say.
I've just finished book 1, and I guess I thought the take on her was pretty accurate (so far) I think it's about mid stream into the book where she goes from being the character who just kind of does "whatever" to something else. So, I'm fine with this so far..
And admittedly, she's the character I personally like most so far, just through Book 1. I seemingly can "get" her attitude. I mean, I understand that you are meant in some way to like Ned's chivalry but I almost slapped my head and said "what a bone head" when the King died.. wow, you'd think with what was going on around him he would have had Joffrey and the Queen's heads on spikes before daybreak... and the daughter of his, what a moron. Still, loved the first book.. for now, I'll root for her and her "Stallion to Ride the World" to come and dish some bitter vengence on people.. I'm eager to see how the heck they do moments like "the crowning" within a series, because I can't see how that could -ever- be put on film.
