Is Sansa more beautiful in the books?

Did you know Sansa Stark has a slightly different appearance in the books and has to pretend to be Littlefinger's daughter in the Vale? This short uses evidence from A Game of Thrones, A Clash of Kings, A Storm of Swords, A Feast for Crows, A Dance with Dragons and The Winds of Winter.

A Game of Thrones theory explained, prepare for The Winds of Winter release date with a theory video of George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire book series and something to think about while waiting for HBO's House of the Dragon Season 2.

I think everyone is probably more beautiful when they're just a concept you have total control over

Sansas hair is NOT more red in the books. Her hair is described as auburn, which is reddish-brown. Catelyns hair is red and Neds' hair is brown. All of Neds children, excepting Arya and Jon have Auburn hair. It is very precisely described in the books.

Book: shes 11, tall, womanly, and everyon wants her
Me reading:

[thenightqueen]

“She had red hair like her mother, and deep blue eyes.”

So … in other words the actress who played Sansa … Sophie Turner …

[StinkiiAlt]

What made you go with THAT picture of Sansa and Jon?

[nickthegreat]

I mean overall despite the slight appearance discrepencies I think everyone in got was exellently cast, but Sophie Turner particularly, come on she was practically born for it in terms of distinguishing features

[DaenerysUchiha]

Sophie is the perfect Sansa she fits the descriptions perfectly

[marikareinert]

It seems like the role of Sansa was made for Sophie❤

[gersonribeiro]

I never read the books but I seriously doubt she can be more beautiful in the books than she is in the

As someone who hit puberty around 10/11 and had a grown spurt at the same time, the fact that 11 year old Sansa is sexualized and lusted after by grown men is so deeply uncomfortable and disturbing. I feel like the GOT fandom tends to overlook or dismiss the inherent grossness of most Sansa ships, I don’t think I’ve ever seen her paired with anyone remotely her own age (aside from Joffrey, but I’ve never seen anyone actually ship them)

[Rawnervzz]

Little Finger is much more creepy in the books.

[connaeris]

According to Martin every single woman from the major houses is extremely beautiful. The showrunners should have probably hired a bunch of models 😂

[zachshack]

"Even though she is only 11 years old"-Yeaah Ima stop ya right there. I'm gonna need you to go ahead and stop lol

I went to school with a girl who, when she was 12, had F-cup breasts. She absolutely despised them, because she enjoyed running and they just got in the way; she had to wear two sports bras for support. Also, grown men would hit on her all the time, some of whom were not deterred when she revealed herself as not even a teenager.

By the time she graduated from high school her breasts had grown to I-cups, but she was still 5' 3" and about 120 lbs; her breasts accounted for close to 20% of her weight. She could no longer run, so she took up swimming instead. She had been diagnosed with macromastia, but she couldn't get reduction surgery until they stopped growing.

She graduated before that could happen, but I understand she was finally able to get reduction surgery in her early 20's.

[look-out---another]

Wait, why would a bastard of Littlefinger not know that the bastard of Winterfell is Jon Snow? That seems exactly like something a Littlefinger bastard would know. I think a Littlefinger bastard would probably be better educated or at least more knowledgeable than many of those that are highborn.

So what your saying is Sophie was the perfect casting choice for Sansa…

[Mrstrangert]

GRRM makes all his characters all so young. Robb is what 16? Duncan the Tall is 18. Sansa and Arya are both little children

[leonorgf]

I’ve never had the interest in reading the books, but now… the books sound 100 times better!!!

[Emanuel-oomc]

I always wondered if the woman the witch warned Cersei of was Sansa

[possomt]

Describing an 11 year old as womanly creeped me out
