Know what? The only reason I read LOTR was because of Harry Potter! I originally told my parents that I didn't care for LOTR cause it was too long. (And this comes from a person who read the Guiness Book of World records for '92 in 95!) Anyway, when we went to se Harry Potter in the theatre the day it came out, I saw a trailer for LOTR. I was intruiged, and since it was Friday, i picked it up, and stayed up till around 3:00, then slept until about 8:00, and finished it. And i was like WOW how come I never read this before. You can guess the rest. Kinda freaky though, I only read LOTR in November, and i'm really obsessed now.

My little sister isn't probably ever going to read LOTR, but she's read the Hobbit, and (how does this work) she's on the Downs?! What's up with that?
