Book nerd & crazy cat lady. Why yes, yes this has turned into a Tolkien/LOTR/ROP account. Just trying to survive both perimenopause and the downfall of American freedom.

I love the way the show leans into how the Elves are embalmers, trying to arrest time and preserve the world as it is. Using mithril to do that is an odd choice, but overall, the Tolkien themes of Death and Immortality are there!

I still don’t like the Harfoot/Stranger storyline, but This Wandering Day is beautiful.

I love that Tolkien’s recurring dream of a wave is incorporated here as Tar-Miriel’s dream.

I love Númenor. Can’t wait to see Sauron back there in the next seasons! I dislike that the Númenorean men have beards, though (same complaint as for the films). But overall, the architecture, costumes, ships, Hall of Lore—it’s so beautifully done.

#TROPRewatch, Round 2, S1E1 A Shadow of the Past. Season 1 isn’t my favorite, but it is absolutely beautiful. And here comes Celebrimbor, all happy and un-seduced by Sauron! I’m going to miss him in Season 3. 💔

I’ve read LOTR dozens of times, but after having read all the legendarium this year (and watched RoP), reading through The Mirror of Galadriel just hits different now, in all the best ways. How Tolkien invented her on the spot yet poured so much history and lore into her & that chapter is amazing.❤️

I know this book has rave reviews, but I’m really finding it a slog to get through. I think Shippey’s writing style and organization of the text is just not my cup of tea. The information itself is fascinating, but the way it’s written keeps putting me to sleep. 🤷🏻♀️

Currently reading Vol 2 of Tolkien’s poems, alongside Carpenter’s biography (also glad that I recently read Tolkien’s Letters)—together they give a good timeline to understand where he was when and what he was writing at the time. Need to read Shippey’s Road to M-E next.

You know you’ve watched #RingsofPower a million times when you read this in The Fall of Númenor and picture THAT smirk. Can’t wait to see this scene on screen!

If I was in charge of the Enmys, these two would win all the awards.
