yes i am one of those that just reads posts but as i said before i had'nt been on the site for so long. i came across the site a while back in 2002 though i must confess it was mainly the movies which made me read the books, even tho my dad was presuring me to as i had read the Hobbit. only after i decided i wanted to see the movies did i read the books so i could compare whic bits were missing etc, but then as i read fellowship i came to the conclusion it was great and have been hooked ever since and read as much as i can which is tolkien related.
