It would definitely help if I could have all of my library on the iPad...<br /><br />Me too, Sara! I think I'll read all the other Barbara Rogan books I haven't read yet. Still about two more, at least...<br /><br />Me too, Jack - I can't believe "Trotter" nearly stayed famous just for his travels and his wooden shoes (following torture in Mordor). Aragorn has so much more depth!<br /><br />Aww, thanks Nas!<br /><br />I'm still missing a few myself, Medeia!<br /><br />My hooks were the running one and the octopus one, Neurotic. Too bad - I still like my octopus opening!<br /><br />Tomorrow's post, Lara! Whole lotta Gaiman!<br /><br />Sometimes I think I read too fast, Trisha. So I reread a lot too :-)Deniz Bevanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17134553551048836979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-82222410002132202492013-08-11T02:07:54.645-04:002013-08-11T02:07:54.645-04:00You sure did read a lot for just one weekend!

And I'm with you on the e-reader difficulties; I don't have an iPad, but I do have a Nook from Barnes and Noble. It's cool that I can download books right away, but I don't like that I keep having to recharge the Nook every few hours. And I never bring my Nook out of my apartment, because I'm afraid it'll get stolen. No one on the train or the bus has tried to steal any of my library books, on the other hand. (But once a librarian told me that several people tried to steal books from the library.)Neurotic Workaholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775298184138766683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-36556911051909754662013-08-07T20:00:37.196-04:002013-08-07T20:00:37.196-04:00All those books...I want the ones I don't have...All those books...I want the ones I don't have.

I've heard a lot ... Good point about the Eagles. I've heard a lot of debate about them, but that really makes a lot of sense. There were birds spying for Sauron, and they would have least seen a group of eagles carrying Hobbits.<br /><br /> When I learned that about Aragorn I was SOOO happy Tolkien spent so long working on the series. I just can't imagine him as a hobbit.

Now days I find myself swiping a finger over physical pages and wondering why they didn't turn. (Yup, and embarrassing truth.) I think I've turned the corner and gone more "e" than physical. 60/40Crystal Collierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03912469552483168148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-54997196486859167972013-08-07T10:20:06.127-04:002013-08-07T10:20:06.127-04:00Hi Deniz ..

I have no idea how you have time for all of this - and all the other things too!!<br /><br />Interesting about Aung San Suu Kyi ... did you know she kept aware of what was going on while she was 'imprisoned' .. by listening to the BBC World Service and that included 'pop' songs .. which kept her 'alive' and with it .. so she's a convert.<br /><br />I think you said you were going to see Gaiman .. enjoy .. cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-66433252467929074602013-08-07T09:25:53.517-04:002013-08-07T09:25:53.517-04:00Are you going to go see Gaiman?
