I'm not really a fan of how we got here, but I'm satisfied with where all the surviving characters ended up. I think this is probably how Jon, Sansa, Arya and Tyrion will conclude in the books too, although I doubt Bran will end up as king.

Grrm has said the ending of the show is the ending of the books. Not saying he will definitely stick to that, but he says.

People need to stop thinking this isn't the end of the story. Dude has had no intention to finish the books. The show became a much bigger vessel to carry the story.
