Gandalf.... is also an oblique self-portrait of his creator. Crucially, Gandalf unravels the identity of Bilbo's Ring by deciphering long-forgotten documents in the royal library in Minas Tirith....

Sitting outside while it's still possible without burning to a crisp. Putting together my "check list" for the upcoming month. Lots of books starting with L. I'm hoping the #ClassicLSFBC and the #LittensLoveRomance pick will start with an L too. ?
