It’s heavy going, I’ll take a wee break to digest and continue with ‘The Siege of Gondor’ after dinner. Slow and steady with ‘The Return of the King’ for me, there’s loads going on!

And like every time I get to this point, I have to read so slowly and carefully to stay focused on what is happening. I always struggle here, I think it’s because it’s full with political speech and detail from so many characters viewpoints.

And that’s The Two Towers finished! Absolutely heartbreaking 💔

‘The Taming of Sméagol’ is next - but first! - a roast dinner is underway, and I desperately need it because I had wayyyyyy too much rum last night! 🫣🤣

Up next - The Palantír - although I better get back to real life, I’ve spent my whole Saturday in Middle Earth, so I need to interact with my husband, level out that guilt that selfishly reading brings 🙄 I’m sure you can all relate! 😆
Tomorrow, I shall return ✨🔮 ✨

Arm muscles all good, I generally sit in my recliner to read and rest the weighty tomb on my knees! It’s a well-behaved book in that it stays open on the page I’m reading 💪🏻 📖 good ol’ 1970’s binding 😉
