I'm going to start the Two Towers, either in Dec or Jan. I hope I can do ROTK soon after. It just took me so long to get to the 2nd book, cuz I get easily sidetracked by other books I want to read. I want to move through them quickly, so I can finally see the movies (mostly for Viggo
)

I already like Two Towers better than FOTR. Probably because the story was already in progress, it was so much easier to get into. And, I like how Aragorn is present right away. |

LOL--and this weekend I thought about beginning another read-through of the Outlander books. Depending how my practice starts off in 2007, I hope I'll have the time to read through Outlander soon. Plus, finish LOTR series, plus try and keep up with BOTM books, plus keep reading my romances. Oy! |

I'm halfway through Two Towers. I'm getting through this one much faster than FOTR. I really like it. Hopefully I'll be done by Jan 1, then on to ROTK. |

beware G..the second have of TTT is much slower b/c it's the Frodo/Gollum/Sam scenes. Where are you now? |

Dammit! I wish the whole series was about Aragorn I'm exactly at page 200 in my 400 page book--where the crew has just left Edoras and is battling Orcs. |

OMG, I hate Gollum. He is so smarmy and annoying. He's crazy talking to his multiple personality self. His dialog gets confusing sometimes. Almost done. Can't wait to move on to ROTK. |

I didn't appreciate Gollum's character much until seeing him in the movies. It took me a while to grasp his multiple personalities. While he was a pretty bad person before the ring took him over, I still felt bad for him in the end. |
