So it’s Thursday. Thursdays have never really excited me too much, you know? I mean, I don’t know. Thursday. Jeudi (en francais). The next day’s Friday, so that always overshadows the fact that it’s Thursday, I think. Poor Thursday. Anyway, here’s a quote from what I’m reading lately, because that’s all I’ve got for you. I mean, it IS Thursday, after all.
I’m currently taking a little break from the world of HP and owls and Hogwarts (and still mourning the loss of D) and have delved into the world of “The Hobbit,” and it’s quite pleasant. I mean, I had to read this book before the movie comes out, you know? Plus, Tolkien is awesome. And his sense of humor! I love it! I find myself chuckling to myself at those silly Hobbitses and their aversion to adventures and their love for food. And their little hairy feet. And Bilbo Baggins is the coolest Hobbit around. So. Yeah. Have you read “The Hobbit” or any of the “Lord of the Rings” books? Are you a fan? Let’s nerd out together, maybe?
/end nerd post.

Aren’t Hobbits the best?? I’ve read all the books and seen the movies more times than I can count – they’re just the best. I threw a quote at my boyfriend today from the Two Towers and he completely didn’t get it. I may need to find a new boyfriend.
Katie Did What
YES, I love me some Hobbits! Haha you may need to reconsider the boyfriend, that’s for sure. ;)

I will totally nerd out with you. I’ve read all the HP books…twice:/ And I’ve read all the LOTR books/The Hobbit. Total nerd.
They’re amazing though! You’ll love them:)
Katie Did What
YAYYYY. You’re awesome! I know I will be reading the HP books all over again probably in a year or so!! :) I know I’ll catch more things I didn’t the first time, and it might even be more enjoyable the second time around? Who knows. I do know I’m going to be so sad when they’re all over (I’m about to start the last one!) And The Hobbit is the cutest little thing in the world. I am LOVING it!

Katie
I have never read any of the LOTR books but I’ve seen all the movies and love them! Maybe I should add these to my “Books To Read” list.
Katie Did What
I’ve seen all of the LOTR movies, too, but I’m not sure if I’m going to read those books… At least not for a while… But The Hobbit? LOVE it so much, and highly recommend!
