I am one of the very few people who have not been required by the Public School System to read the Lord of the Rings or the Hobbit. So before actually seeing the movie I am forcing myself to read the book first. I am not the world's fastest reader either. I read at conversational speed. Currently I am half way through the book. Reading for an hour or so three or four nights a week. I really enjoy reading. I find it to be a rather rewarding experience. The last book I read was the Alienist by Caleb Carr. VERY good, by the way. So hopefully soon I will complete the first book and rent the DVD. From what I here I will not be disappointed!
You dig!
