Yeah that's The Hobbit. Terribly done movies. They took a great book that's half the size of one of the books from the LotR trilogy and stretched it into three feature-length films by adding a bunch of nonsense.
I am so glad the book is good, because that is what I am reading once I finish Project Hail Mary.
Ooh how's Project Hail Mary? It's somewhere towards the top of my list, but BrandoSando is bringing out another book in a couple weeks and I'm trying to work my way through Wheel of Time (gosh the first book is awful).
It is so good, I don't qualify myself as an avid reader, the book I read before was Dracula from Bram Stoker, and the one before it... I can't even remember lol.
But with this book I have been hooked from the beginning I think I started it last week, and I am more than half of it, for my reading habits I would say I am doing fairly well.
I am aware the Wheel of Time has a huge amount of books, so good luck with that haha.
