2012 book 368

J.R.R. Tolkien's The Fellowship of the Ring
Seeing The Hobbit made me want to reread the Lord of the Rings books--and actually, seeing it has enhanced my reading experience slightly, in that I actually know who Balin is (the friendly and lovable white-haired one!) and care about what happened to him. I'd forgotten that Frodo and the gang don't get to Rivendell until like halfway through, but things are pretty action-packed from that point on (barring the MANY poems and songs, anyway). And Sam is even better than I'd remembered.
