Amanda said: " It took me a long freakin time to get through this book (it is 947 pages!) but I am really glad I stuck with it to the end. Now, I want to go straight to the bookstore tomorrow and buy the next book in the series. "

Amanda’s Quotes

“I go now to the halls of waiting to sit beside my fathers, until the world is renewed. Since I leave now all gold and silver, and go where it is of little worth, I wish to part in friendship from you, and I would take back my words and deeds at the Gate. . . If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit, or There and Back Again
