I finished The Return of the King! It was so good, it is on my favorite book's list! It was so much better than the movie, more detail, more characters, and a way better ending.
Next week I am going to be starting The Age of Chivalry by Bullfinch. I don't know much about this book, I think it's a King Arthur story. I never much liked reading about him, his stories always have tragic endings which I hardly ever like. I will give this book a try though and see where it leads.
On the side, I have started a book that I bought around Christmas. Apparently it's not worthy enough to be put on my official list because its a Christian/mystery/romance novel by one of my favorite authors, Gilbert Morris. His books are all called fluff by my more classic loving sister (who once started one and never finished it because it was so silly to her) but I have really been wanting to start it, so the poor Age of Chivalry will not be the only book in my life right now.
Happy Reading! :)

Head Start
Last week since I finished Undine so quickly, I started the Return of the King. It is such a long book that half a week later I am not even half way through it. So I am glad I got such a good head start! :)
I am really enjoying The Lord of the Rings series. They are different from the movies (which I saw first) but I still like them. The final book has to be the one that Hollywood changed the most. The book and the movie are technically not even the same story. I like both versions, but reading the book is nice because I truly have no idea what is going to happen next.
Though I have to say that the actor's and actresses that were picked for the movies fit perfectly.

Easy Read!
Yesterday I finished the Two Towers, so I started Undine that night. I finished it in about a hour and a half. It was not only a short book, but also a really fast read.
I thought it was very well written and a interesting read, but I did not like it. I did not like any of the characters, and I did not like the story. I thought it could have ended much better. I really want to say why I did not like it but some of you might be planning to read it so I won't ruin it, unless people in the comments section beg me to but I doubt that. ;)
Since I finished Undine so quickly I started the next book on my list, The Return of the King. Yay!
And who else is looking forward to the new movie the Hobbit?
