Welcome to Litsy!

Really fun playing in the snow today and then cozying up to read with some hot chocolate ☕️

Tolkien is so funny! I laughed out loud at the invention of golf— how had I forgotten about it?!

This was fun!! The bottom three are villains that frightened the life out of me as a child!! I‘m sure they meant the singular man in Bambi, I‘m using it to mean mankind. Also, if you‘re playing a fascist/Nazi automatic villain!! Missing from the list are my two favorite villains, Moriarty from Sherlock and Loki. (if you get redemption arc, are you still a villain?)

Care to play?

#SummerSouls Day 2: #mountains reminded me of a Poetry Friday feature Iphigene once shared on GatheringBooks with the ballad Far Over the Misty Mountain here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-8PY

What a delightful reread of this marvelous adventure! So happy to have shared it with my #FellowshipofTolkien friends 💚📚

I can't wait to start Fellowship next week!

I'm so behind in the #FellowshipOfTolkien reading of The Hobbit, as well as the other books I've been reading that I'm joining #20in4 with a goal of reading for 20 hours this weekend. I don't have to work tomorrow, so I should be able to pull it off.

Gollum! I found it interesting that when he says: “my precious” he is referring to himself, and not the ring. At least that is how I interpreted it this time. Even as an adult the riddles just baffle me. I get it when they answer, but I‘m clueless. Lol. #FellowshipofTolkien #LotRChapteraDay @Daisey @JazzFeathers

Belated #BookReport for April 16 thru 22.

All were enjoyable with my reread of The Hobbit (#DoubleSpin) the best of the bunch. Three more finishes for #SeriesLove23.

I‘m loving Demon but stopped because he‘s in a good place and I know it won‘t last. I appreciate the opioid crises details so far as they line up with what I learned reading Empire of Pain. Finally getting into LOS and am close to bailing on Emily‘s House.

15 books? And the world is ending? You might as well just tell me that some much-needed reading glasses are broken 😜 @RaeLovesToRead (actual pic of me avoiding this dire thought) #ihavequestions #belovedbooks

Here‘s my list (with commentary!):
1. The Hobbit (⬆️THIS copy and yes I‘ll be mad if it gets scuffed or dinged)
2. The Complete Ivory - Egan (hey, series is contained into one book!)
3. Magic Strikes (the BEST Kate Daniels. Fight me.)
