I can't remember if I picked up on it, or heard is somewhere, but is John Snow the brother of the dragon chick? If so, I would think that gives him claim to the throne, so would she try to kill him? How come Anne Boleyn doesn't get naked every other minute like she did in The Tudors?
Here is a great essay on Jon paratage...

Also there was a recent one where they discuss Jon being Lightbringer.. (not a sword but a child that took 3 attempts to forge and resulted in the death of a woman)
Lots of essays on that site that are worth a read and some trivia you can play.
Also you can scope it so you dont spoil things for yourself if you are trying to avoid that.
Already the book and show are on different paths. Take the book as canon
