So far I am really enjoying it. I wasn't sure if I would, since I usually read futuristic science fiction novels. My mother gave me this book along with The Chamber of Secrets and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

I've never read LotR. I've seen the movies though.

I recently read a really good book called Clockwork Angels by Kevin J. Anderson. It was inspired by the Rush album of the same name. I just purchased Clockwork Lives by the same author.

Lol I used to be really bad at reading (any book) before bed because I’d only intend to read a chapter or two, and then suddenly I’d look up and it was 3am - oops!

I love really good books that put everything on hold. I used to read a lot. It was one of my outlets. Ever since I got a computer that changed. I'm trying to get back into reading again, because it is so much enjoyable than watching YouTube videos.

I'll be taking a lot of books with me when I move to Kitchener. I think reading will help with the transition and loneliness.
