You know, it's fairly clear that this conversation is mired in the doldrums, so I propose we make like Círdan and tack this conversation hard to to starboard.
Who introduced you all to the Lord of the Rings? For myself, it was my father, who himself loved the novels when he was younger.
For me, it was… No one in particular. My family were all fans and recommended it, but no one pushed me to really read it.
My Grandfather. He has an entire library in his house. He got me my amazing copies. He has this ability to find the best possible versions of every book. It took me a while to get into the books but when I did I called him and we talked for hours. We’re actually going up to see him and my grandma next weekend
Fun! Enjoy your trip! What versions did he get you?
He got me a 3 volume hardcover set, I think it’s an anniversary edition, all three have fold out maps in the back which are illustrated by Tolkien

Me jealous lol.
lol. What versions do you guys have?
I don’t actually own any of the books. I just read them on my library app. But I remember all the parts I consider important in my head. And like I said, I can always use the library to refresh my recollection.

I'm in the middle of a dance lesson (and probably shouldn't be posting while doing it), after that I have a massive content backlog for Lazy Paint Productions that I need to work on, and I'm trying to re-sort all my 1,000 miniatures. Besides that, not much.

Out of curiosity, what type of dance?
Scottish highland dancing. Done in kilts, over swords, to the bagpipes. Cause we're hardcore.
