Tolkien's World: A Guide to the Places and People of Middle-Earth | Gareth Hanrahan

This post contains spoilers

So, gals, here's my idea for our celebration. We could organise a photo challenge inspired by the book originally included in the challenge. They were 5, plus the 18th, so it would be almost a week.

CHALLENGE

The Hobbit - l'm going on an adventure: The first book by Tolkien l ever read

The Fellowship of the Ring - The Black Riders: a book by Tolkien that was darker than l imagined

👇

JazzFeathers The Two Towers - The Struggle: a book by Tolkien l thought l'd never read, but that l loved The Return of the King - The Book that dove me back to Tolkien The Silmarillion - The Innumerable Characters: my favourite characters from Middle Earth On the 18th: crazy quotation day. What do you think? @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Daisey @InLibrisVeritas 6y

JazzFeathers For the hashtag, l was thinking #ThereAndBackAgain 😊 or maybe something more sedate like #TolkienOneYear or #TolkienYearOne ? 🤔 6y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa I love it! And I like #ThereAndBackAgain 6y

Daisey Great ideas and I really like the #ThereAndBackAgain! The only suggestion might be to open up the Fellowship and Two Towers a bit for more variety to just be a dark scene/book and a struggle of any kind to do with the books. Hope that makes sense. 6y

JazzFeathers Yes @Daisey it makes perfect sense and it's a good idea. @Riveted_Reader_Melissa @InLibrisVeritas Any other suggestions, gals? I want to have a picture ready in the next few days, so we can start posting it. I was thinking l could tag a few of the most active readers of the readalong, l still have their names noted down. Maybe someone will join the #YearOfTolkien readaling 😊 6y

JazzFeathers @wordslinger42 Don't know whether you're aware of it, but we are planning to celebrate one year of reading Tolkien dangerously 😆😉 6y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @JazzFeathers That sounds perfect! I‘m so glad you‘ve taken this great idea and ran with it! You‘ve done a fabulous job. 6y

InLibrisVeritas I think it sounds great! And the themes sound pretty fun as well 😊 6y

wordslinger42 @JazzFeathers Sounds like great fun! So, just to make sure I understand, if I were posting for day five, I would be sharing my favorite characters from any of the books. It doesn't have to just be characters from the Silmarillion, right? 6y

JazzFeathers @wordslinger42 Exactly right 😊 6y

JazzFeathers Thanks @InLibrisVeritas 6y

JazzFeathers Thanks @Riveted_Reader_Melissa Besides, l think there's a little bit of Hobbit in all of us and it'd be a shame to miss an opportunity to celebrate an achievement 😆 6y
