I‘ve #reread the series about five times. I‘ve also watched the movies several times. I wonder why? 🤔#aboutabook

Susanita @ItsAnotherJen Right?! I briefly tried that style in middle school and couldn‘t quite get it to work. (I‘m pretty sure Karl‘s is a wig but still…) 3mo
Eggs Perfect 👍🏼 🤩 3mo
ItsAnotherJen @Susanita no matter what I do, I can never get that style to look good on me! Totally gave up 3mo

So, before we start our new reads with the #FellowshipOfTolkien l want to try and finish at least the Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings. With both books, I'm not so far from the end, so...

And soon, the #DraculaDaily will pick up again where l left off last year, and I'd like to finish that too.

It's disgracefully hot here in Italy. Let's see what l manage.

Here we are!!! 😁

@Daisey and l have been thinking what to read next with the #FellowshipOfTolkien.

There are a few option we'd like to explore.
Here is what we have come up with for a Fall reading.
1. Sir Gawain and the Green Knight
2. The Fall of Numenor
3. Tolkien and the Great War

These are really three different path we might thread.
1. Tolkien's medieval work (so much to read!)
2. New publications
3. Books about Tolkien

What you fancy?😁

CatLass007 Please continue to tag me with these buddy reads. I don‘t have any opinion on what to read next. 4mo
wordslinger42 I‘m not interested in The Fall of Numenor, but will happily join in for the others whenever you read them! 4mo
BethM I‘m in. I def want to read sir gwain but that‘s specific to the story lol 4mo
BookwormAHN I'm good with any of them 😺 4mo
Daisey I am happy to read any of these, but my first pick would be reread Sir Gawain, which is usually published with translations of The Pearl & Sir Orfeo, with the group followed by some other translations that have been out a while that I‘ve yet to read. 4mo
Desha I‘m interested in Tolkien and the Great War…I‘ve been wanting to read it for a long while! Thank you for organizing this read along!! 💗 4mo
Roary47 I‘m game for whatever. The first selection looks the most interesting. 4mo
BarbaraJean I‘d be interested in any of these! I‘m less interested in Sir Gawain, since I finally got around to reading it (along with The Pearl and Sir Orfeo) not that long ago, but it would also be hard to resist reading it with the group 😁 4mo
TheAromaofBooks This fall is looking crazy busy for me, but let me know what the group decides and I will see if I can work it in!! 4mo
JazzFeathers @Daisey It looks like Sir Gawain is taking the table 😂 4mo
Daisey @JazzFeathers @TheAromaofBooks @BarbaraJean @Roary47 @Desha @BookwormAHN @BethM @wordslinger42 @CatLass007 @AllDebooks I‘m working on a schedule for Sir Gawain, Pearl, and Sir Orfeo with the plan to start September 1. 3mo

It seems like I do a reread of Lord of the Rings every few years. I always find something new to savor.

I will also reread a series sometimes if there‘s a new book and it‘s been a while since I read the last one.

This year I‘m not planning to reread anything so I can work on my TBR, but you never know!

I got a new sword and scabbard. It was a gift from my husband. It is Éomer's sword Gúthwinë. I already have Éowyn's sword. They happen to be siblings. I like to pretend I am also a rider of Rohan. It is called fantasy after all. 😏

ravenlee So cool! 6mo
