re: Crackpot ASOIAF Theories SPOILERS

Does anyone else pick books to read if you know there will be a TV series/movie on it? I never read Hunger games until my wife read them after hearing a movie was in the works. I did the same with The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and the Game of Thrones books. Actually started Game of Thrones twice before I did the third time and read it all the way through then.
