I really enjoyed reading about the conspiracy. They've got a pretty strong friendship/kinship going. The baths were also delightful. #fellowshipoftolkien #groupread #readalong #readalongs2020 #fantasyclassic #friendship
Today's chapter was very fun. I'll admit, I was afraid Mr. Maggot was going to turn them over or something when he insisted they stay for food! And I can't stop laughing about how worried they've all been about the sniffing. #fellowshipoftolkien #fantasyclassic #readalong #groupread #readalongs2020 #trustnoone
They‘re off on their adventure, but managed to get in two more slights to the Sackville-Bagginses! There's always time for pety revenge. #fellowshipoftolkien #readalong #groupread #fantasyclassic #2020readalongs #pettyrevenge #pettyhobbit
I love how much lore Tolkien slipped into these books. It also didn't escape my notice that Gandalf is notably a lore expert (having nothing to do with Tolkien's profession, I'm sure) interested in obscure lores that no one else focuses on. #fellowshipoftolkien #readalongs2020 #groupread #fantasyclassic #mythology #norsemythology
There‘s so much social snark between hobbits voiced by the narrator! This chapter is a fun setup. #fellowshipoftolkien #readalong2020 #fantasyclassic #readalong #groupread #salt
So far, I'm delighted that this book starts out with a history of hobbits. It's very characteristic of someone interested in history and inspired by mythology. #fellowshipoftolkien #fantasyclassic #classicihaventread #readalongs2020 #readalong #groupread
I haven't read this book yet (it's been on my list for a while, but I've been putting it off because I expect it to be difficult to focus on). I came across a post that #fellowshipoftolkien is starting a chapter-a-day readalong of it starting Jan 3rd. Maybe now's the time to tackle this one. #groupread #readalong #fantasyclassic #classicIhaventread
