First of all, I'd like to say a huge thank you to all of you who put in your input and thoughts. Reading each and every one of your experiences and bits of advice helped me immensely.

I understand everything a lot better now. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

I suppose it would be no fun if I was able to sit down and precisely plan and pin-point down what is happening, what has happened, and what will happen, while reading the books. I should let myself be swept off in the adventure, you're right. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

My problem was, up until I read all of your replies, I felt that I had to press my boot of understanding down on the books. Like I -had- to know and memorize every little detail. I had become overwhelmed from trying to do that, and it was not as enjoyable and smooth and refreshing as it is meant to be.

So THANK YOU, all of you, for guiding me. I'm ready to pick up RotK now and enjoy the ride. Wherever it takes me.
