i'm 13, but i'm gonna be 14 on October 23rd (yay!)... i discovered Tolkien in grade 4 when we watched the animated movie and the teacher read it to our class (she didn't read the last chapter for some reason, though, and I waited about a year until I got it from the library and read the rest of it [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] ).
I heard about LotR when my brother got into the books.. hmm... I guess 3 years ago.. I'm not sure. Anyway, I thought he was kinda dorky for being so obsessed over a series of books, and now that I'm obsessed with them he thinks I'm the dork!
Anyway, I started reading LotR about two weeks before the movie came out in theatres, and I finished in mid-March (I know, this seems like a long time, but I kinda stopped reading FotR for a couple weeks after I saw the movie. But I read RotK in 5 days, so there! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img])
I'm gonna read the Silm as soon as I can get a copy! (Must..get...money....)

(hope I haven't bored you all to life with this post [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img])
