The Fellowship of the Ring Acquired!

[bunnyboo]

I decided on The Fellowship of the Ring for my next book. I've read it once before (last year, actually), and what I mostly remember are hobbit genealogy and history (my favorite), a lot of walking, the strangeness that is Tom Bombadil, and Samwise being the best character. (I love Sam. I have an embarrassing crush on him.)

I tried reading it in high school and then in college, but I bounced off both times. It wasn't until I saw the movie that I was able to actually sit down and understand what was going on. Tolkien is a very descriptive writer and has a clear understanding of his world and its history, but that can sometimes be to his detriment - at least for me.

Anyways, I'm excited to read through it again and write some posts for y'all!
