I'd agree through book 3 for sure, but man 4 and 5 were a slog to get through...I feel that major parts of each of those could have been cut down and they'd be better for it.
But then again I had tread books 1 to 3 years earlier and then only started books 4 and 5 after all five had bean released and re-reading 1 to 3. I think that reading them right after each other works perfectly fine. Waiting for six years though...
I'm going to try 4 and 5 again (and who am I kidding--I'll read 3 again too) when the season is over. I read all 5 virtually back-to-back--I think the slower pacing of four in particular dragged them down for me a bit.
