Tolkien Week

Thanks to She is too Fond of Books, I just learned that September 16 to September 22 is Tolkien week! And the 22nd of September is national Hobbits Day. I wanted to re-read The Hobbit before December when the new movie comes out and Tolkien Week seems like the perfect tiem to do it! I am going to try ot read the whole Lord of The Rings trilogy and then end it with The Hobbit on September 22. Even if I don't finish the LOTR books by the 22nd I am just going to start on The Hobbit. Oh! I should watch the movies too after I finish each book. Hello Orlando Bloom~

I read The Hobbit back in sixth grade but I don't remember a lot of what happened in the book. I do remember enjoying it for the most part though.

If anyone else is doing something like this for Tolkien Week please leave a comment with your blog! I would like to read it.

Origin Mad Lib

I love Mad Libs! I just completed the Mad Lib challenge for the Origin Olympics giveaway. The author of Origin is giving away some amazing prizes at her blog. It is worth checking out, plus there are some fun challenges to do.

Here's my Mad Lib story. If you want to participate in this challenge if have not done so yet, you might not want to look at the following picture unless you don't mind spoilers.













No! Not the telephones!

TBR Intervention 8/25



 The TBR (To-Be-Read) Intervention is a weekly challenge to help readers tackle their TBR piles. It is hosted by by Dani@RefractedLight , Ayanami@Whatever you Can Still Betray,  and April@Books4Juliet 

My TBR pile is huge! Hopefully this will help me mark some books off of the list and get me to write more reviews for this blog. So, for this week I hope to finish reading Flirting in Italian by Lauren Henderson and Bend Sinister by Vladimir Nabokov.

This is my first time participating in the TBR Intervention! Here's to a good week of reading!
