Esty, I have no preference, but curious, were you planning on breaking up the sections of the Children of Hurin?

Guinevere is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
I was wondering about that too. The Children of Hurin is much longer than an average chapter, and it will probably take me about a week to reread it.

I just checked the length of the next chapter - appr. 150 pages!!! We definitely won't cover that in a week, and breaking it up into sections is a good idea. I'll give us the rest of this week to finish here and start reading Túrin - at first glance, I'd say we go up to "Túrin in Doriath" in the first week.

We now return to our regularly scheduled discussion...
