I'd recommend it. Even if you watch the show I think they're totally worth a read.

Yeah, its become a total soap. But has a few redeeming scenes, and tits. So your argument is invalid.

On topic: I like the analysis from Rotti and ToD.

He is like Darkness, ever present even in what you'd think to be the most well lit of places.

Difficult to give advice on a series of books to another. 
But, if pressed, I'd say that I recommend the series, but I don't strongly recommend the series. There are better reads.
GOT is about 3 1/2 stars out of 5 for me (in SC2 LR terms).

Rotti is too tanned in my eyes, and Tod looks normal.
