  • This one line changed how I read Fellowship of the Ring
    Jul 11 2025
    I could talk for hours about why JRR Tolkien is one of the best writers who has ever lived and written in the English language.

  • Frodo is Much Tougher in the Book
    Jul 8 2025
    Everything after Weathertop is SO DIFFERENT! I cannot believe how much changed from the book to the movie and this is going to just be a long rant on it and then I want to talk all about Frodo at the end and his courage which the movies don’t show.

  • Tolkien is a MASTER of Foreshadowing
    Jul 7 2025
    So I am reading the Lord of the Rings for the first time and I just finished the chapter where Frodo gets stabbed at Weathertop. And I have to say…everyone should have seen it coming in this chapter. The foreshadowing is right there…as well as for a few other things in this book too that I want to talk about.
