Fallenstar has just left Hobbiton.
my first major English reading task (I gave myself four years ago when I first arrived to Canada) was the Fellowship...I understood parts of it...more like just one fourth of it if I was lucky..I learned just about tons of words, I mean I never knew that "cry" can also mean speak out loud or shout, and I started wondering when I reached chapter three that why is everybody crying when they are not sad..

I learned a lot of new words thanks to LOTR, and after tons of re-reading I think I understood more every time.

Still trying to increase my vocabulary.
