My parents. My mom read us The Hobbit aloud about mid March, because we'd seen the Hobbit preview in theaters when we went to see the Avdentures of Tintin {3 times!}. Than by the end of summer we had read each LOTR book and seen the movie when we were done with the book.
We weren't experts immediately, it was gradual. But just to be clear we HATE all that magic stuff in it. I know it's supposed to be "magical" but still. We do not support any of the magic stuff and do not like that Simlirillian thing.
Okay, so that's it! Tomorrow I might/might not do a post about something in my life. Ramble about Sherlock and the Reichenbach Fall? Maybe a review or something. Maybe the fact that the Desolation of Smaug is taking waaaaaayyyy too long to get here. It wasn't like this with the Unexpected Journey. But we didn't know it would be so awesome. Sigh. Hobbit why come you no faster?
How did you get into LOTR?

I got into it because of a family member, too:)
ReplyDeleteMy family has been admirers of Tolkien for as long as I can remember. I grew up watching the movies, and LOVED them sooo much. A while ago I read the Lord of the Rings and recently I finished The Hobbit for the third time. LOTR has been a huge part of my life. <3
