I feel like everyone has a special memory of how they first learned about Lord of the Rings. For me it was right around when the first movie came out. I watched it non-stop with my sisters friend’s elder sister. Anytime my sister would go over to play I’d be watching. I ultimately got the books but it was a huge undertaking for my age and never actually read it for an embarrassing long time. I did memorize the dwarvish rune alphabet in the appendix of my copy. Drove my teachers nuts writing with it.

    An annual watch of LotR is a tradition I too try and adhere to. When you can, try to make time for reading LotR. It can add more flavor to future viewings of the Jackson films.

      I definitely will! Actually have it downloaded and just sitting on my Kindle. I should really get to it one of these days.
