I am an avid reader and am 40 years late to reading the Lord of The Rings trilogy. Not only is it beautifully written, it is giving me strength and hope in what feels like a beginning to a hard journey forward. Though it’s 70 years old, the story is still fantastically relatable. I’ve become obsessed.
The quote I have on my bedside table:
“Even darkness must pass. A new day will come, and when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer."
I get the hype now. I can’t wait to read everything in J.R.R. Tolkien’s canon.

I remember struggling to read this as a kid but devouring it as an adult.
Awww I love that! You’re never too late to jump on the LOTR train! So glad you’re enjoying it!
I don’t get it.
i like the bedside table idea having a quotation
I have leaned on these books to get through many struggles. Now it appears our course has run ill, and Samwise will have to encourage us again. He is always ready.
