finished reading...


I finished reading The Hobbit in time for my book group discussion. It was epic and classic and I appreciated it but I don't care for fantasy fiction.

A couple of my highlighted quotes: "Never laugh at live dragons." And: "If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold [as the hobbits do], it would be a merrier world."

That, and Heinlein's Stranger in a Strange Land got me into that genre. I fell in love with Bilbo LOL! And the cover of the book? That's a poster on my kitchen wall :-)
