Book nerd & crazy cat lady. Why yes, yes this has turned into a Tolkien/LOTR/ROP account. Just trying to survive both perimenopause and the downfall of American freedom.

I love that Tolkien’s recurring dream of a wave is incorporated here as Tar-Miriel’s dream.

I love Númenor. Can’t wait to see Sauron back there in the next seasons! I dislike that the Númenorean men have beards, though (same complaint as for the films). But overall, the architecture, costumes, ships, Hall of Lore—it’s so beautifully done.

“That’s a tomorrow problem.”

I need to adopt that as my life motto. 🤣

#TROPRewatch, Round 2, S1E1 A Shadow of the Past. Season 1 isn’t my favorite, but it is absolutely beautiful. And here comes Celebrimbor, all happy and un-seduced by Sauron! I’m going to miss him in Season 3. 💔

A lap full of cats and my next read: a voyage through philosophy and faith in Tolkien’s works. A holiday weekend well spent!

Three day weekend! Finally have some time to continue Reading All the #Tolkien Things. Despite my love of phonics and morphology (reading specialist), I’ve never really been interested in learning Quenya or Sindarin. This book may or may not change that. 😂

I’ve read LOTR dozens of times, but after having read all the legendarium this year (and watched RoP), reading through The Mirror of Galadriel just hits different now, in all the best ways. How Tolkien invented her on the spot yet poured so much history and lore into her & that chapter is amazing.❤️

Starting the new school year has seriously cut into my reading time. I’m re-reading LOTR for comfort.

I know this book has rave reviews, but I’m really finding it a slog to get through. I think Shippey’s writing style and organization of the text is just not my cup of tea. The information itself is fascinating, but the way it’s written keeps putting me to sleep. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Currently reading Vol 2 of Tolkien’s poems, alongside Carpenter’s biography (also glad that I recently read Tolkien’s Letters)—together they give a good timeline to understand where he was when and what he was writing at the time. Need to read Shippey’s Road to M-E next.

You know you’ve watched #RingsofPower a million times when you read this in The Fall of Númenor and picture THAT smirk. Can’t wait to see this scene on screen!

Life goals: establish a sheep ranch with a group of other women, call it Emerië, and make men say, “I will go from this misenchanted isle of daydreams where women in their insolence would have men cringe.”

Current reading: one Tolkien tale (that I picked because I love Túrin’s story so much) and two Tolkien-related books (that I picked because they are beautiful). A great mix of Tolkien’s love for stories and our love for Tolkien’s work. ❤️

Finishing up the last of Tolkien’s three Great Tales. (Last because it’s my least favorite of the three, although I do appreciate the connection to Tolkien’s own love story). For me, Huan will always be the true hero of this story!

Current status on my quest to Read All the Tolkien Things: alternating between The Fall of Gondolin and poetry from the absolutely gorgeous 3-volume set of The Collected Poems of JRR Tolkien. 💙💙💙

Alternating between The Letters of JRRT and these short stories, and it’s just delightful.
