Catching up on Letters from Father Christmas this morning with breakfast and laughing about the “Rory Bory Aylis fireworks” and the North Polar Bear‘s antics!

JazzFeathers I caught up to yesterday. Every time l read these letters, l love them the more 😁 1mo
Daisey @BethM @peanutnine Agreed! I never knew about Tolkien‘s artistic talents until I started reading more of his work on Litsy. It‘s so wonderful! 1mo
Daisey @JazzFeathers I don‘t know that I can love them any more than I already do, but I do find new things to appreciate every time. 1mo
tpixie This book of letters is so fun and beautiful 🤩 1mo
BarbaraJean I treated myself to the Centenary edition this year and am so glad I did! I loved the illustrations last year but they're even better in this larger edition. And I'm loving all the commentary that the North Polar Bear adds along the way!! 1mo
Deifio I love what the north polar bear gets up to. 1mo

Happy Saturday morning! I‘m starting a quiet Saturday morning with breakfast casserole and coffee while I catch up on the last few chapters of David Copperfield for October.

I have lots of things to work on at home today since I‘ve been gone the last few weekends, but I plan to listen to lots of audio and fit in some print reading for the Dewey‘s Readathon as well.

Daisey @Tamra It was a no recipe, use what I had, kind of breakfast and it turned out perfectly! 3mo
Tamra @Daisey the best kind! 👏🏾 3mo

I finished rereading Sir Orfeo this morning with breakfast. I enjoyed this poem and as before I noted some similarities to the story of Aragorn as a king returning to his land as a man out of the wild and unrecognized.

JazzFeathers That's true! I hadn't thought of it. What l noticed was Tolkien obvious interest in the arc of temptation and fall. 4mo
Daisey @JazzFeathers Also an interesting observation. I find it so fascinating to read the things that influenced authors I love. It really adds a whole new layer to appreciating their work. 4mo

Daisey Also, to our fellow readers, we‘re planning to read Tolkien and the Great War next, if you want to start finding your book. 4mo
CatLass007 I have it! 4mo
wordslinger42 Do you have any thoughts on when we‘ll be starting Tolkien and the Great War? 4mo
Daisey @wordslinger42 Hopefully early in October since we‘re already past when we planned to have this one done. Sarah and I are both busy so keeping up and coming up with a new schedule has been a bit of a challenge. 4mo

Good morning! Today we start our next Tolkien readalong. I‘m so looking forward to discussing these poetic translations with other readers. Additionally, I‘ve missed my Sunday morning breakfast with Tolkien time. I‘m reading this print copy and also downloaded an audio to listen as well.

Schedule:

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! My library had a copy. I'm very interested to read Tolkien's translation!! 5mo

CatLass007 I‘ve got my audiobook but it‘s not broken down in a similar way to the schedule so I‘m winging it. I‘ll do my best to stay with the group. 5mo
AllDebooks I have this audiobook, too. 5mo
BethM I just finished todays- sometimes I‘m astounded by how much smarter people are than I am 😂 5mo
JazzFeathers I've been silent, but l have started! 😜 5mo

I‘ve seen so many glowing reviews of this book, but I didn‘t get around to reading it myself until my niece (going into 6th grade) told me it was one of her favorites. I have to agree that it‘s a great story that deals with both very relatable and important but difficult topics in a clear way. I also loved the musical aspect (Izabella is a pianist) and the vocabulary that made its way in from class discussion.

Nebklvr It was very good 5mo
aly_the_bean I love that book! Would absolutely recommend. 5mo
Daisey @Nebklvr @aly_the_bean It really was great! So glad I finally picked it up. 5mo

Monday morning book & breakfast! My nephew has decided this series is his new favorite, so he said I had to start reading it. This first book has a bit of a slow start, but it‘s getting more interesting now.

TheBookHippie I love your bookmark! 7mo
Daisey @TheBookHippie These were a random back to school project one year. I collected all the tiny scraps from trimming around new poster pages, glued them on black, laminated the whole sheet, and then sliced it into bookmarks. 7mo
