this is even more bittersweet than in the movies 3

"here at the end of all things" :') my heart

we're back in Mordor and i'm already dreading to read on. shout out to Master Sam, the bravest hobbit of all.

Éowyn, my love...
very interesting to read Tolkien's description of her depression and/ or Denethor's mental illness. The movies make no mention of that tbh

this is so good

everytime Aragorn opens his mouth i am reminded that Tolkien created the most perfect example of (nontoxic!!!) masculinity....he's courageous, compassionate and humble despite being a literal Dunédain AND King of Gondor.
honestly his character is probably the most fictional aspect of the whole triology bc no man would act like that irl :/
