I've read through the various suggestions here and agree that HoME should play only a small part in the Chapter-by-Chapter LotR discussions, since it is another book altogether. However, the parallel discussion is interesting for those who would like to join in, including myself. I suggest we open a thread on the main Books forum, named after the volume being discussed - in this case, The Return of the Shadow.
