I've read both the Sword of Shannara series and The Hobbit but have never got around to finishing the LOTR books so I'll eagerly await your thoughts. Good luck on your years reading and welcome to BCF.

Thank you. I'm only 40 pages in with the Hobbit but i'm really enjoying it. I'm a fairly slow reader but I hope to get through them sooner than I expect.

Hi Caption :lol:

 

I loved 'The Hobbit' .. I did find 'Lord of the Rings' a challenge but I persevered and it was worthwhile .. it's a lot different from the film.

 

Best of luck with your reading in 2010.

Thank you. I think "persevere" is the best word to use as a motivator.

I started the LOTR: Fellowship of the Ring under protest. :lol: I wanted to finish The Hobbit first before starting another book, but I couldn't help it. So, i'm reading both at once.

 

I've also added Ursula Le Guin's The New Atlantis & Vaster Than Empires and More Slow. Short pieces about 35 pages each.

 

More updates to come. : )
