The following post is taken directly from one of my hand-printed Reader's Journal. I will be sharing these reflections each week on the Rivera Runs Through It blog. The date at the end of each post is the date of the original writing, which is typically the date I completed the book. The reflections are short, but represent my initial reactions to a book, a brief summary of the book or the questions it raised for me at the time. I hope you enjoy this segment in my blog and feel free to comment on what you read here.
The Fellowship of the Ring (The Lord of the Rings Part One) by J.R.R. Tolkien
It was so wonderful to revisit Middle-Earth and all of its fantastic occupants. I find it amazing that Tolkien makes every facet of his world come to life. It is very easy to see how this trilogy has become a classic. I can't wait to continue the story to see how Frodo Baggins and the rest of the Company of the Ring complete their heroic mission! And, once again, I will be crossing my fingers since the movie (first of three) comes out this Christmas!
