Anyway welcome back!
Fortunately (or not), my 'set' is the Del Rey boxset of LTI/II, LoB, Shaping of Middle Earth, and Lost Road & Other Writings. I've been reading on my breaks at work, outside if weather permits - I'm sure I've gotten strange looks for reading passage and verse outloud on occasion.

Ah okay - I thought you were going to read all twelve! And there's nothing wrong in reading things out loud.

I'm sure I'll have a great time here. It seems being dead isn't bad at all.I think it seems really fun.
