He had been reading it for about two weeks and his sick day came very near the end. Don't worry - I find a year a very respectable amount of time to finish a Tolkien masterpiece. <br /><br />I have been reading Bleak House for about three years and am still only half way through. Jonah says I need to quit picking up other books and focus on it and then I'll finish it. Too right.JaeReghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07698894795201523471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424150106632496784.post-83709721931358619282012-12-12T15:57:12.099-08:002012-12-12T15:57:12.099-08:00Great read as always, Jessica.
I think you confi...Great read as always, Jessica. <br /><br />I think you confirmed that you are a true "townie" / Virginian with this sentence: <i>"Ok, I won't tell nobody," I whispered.</i> :-)<br /><br />Please tell Jonah that, even though he was sick, he did a fantastic job getting through <i>Two Towers</i> in one day! Wow! The boys and I have been reading through the LOTR trilogy for, I think, almost two years?!? Ha! Can't be... probably just over a year. Anyway, good work so quickly digesting such rich, classic literature!<br /><br />(PS... we're hoping to finish TT by the end of 2012. I'll let you know if we actually do!) :)Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17680269711748939981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424150106632496784.post-41877341100227850462012-12-12T09:35:12.069-08:002012-12-12T09:35:12.069-08:00This piece of writing, like many of yours, causes ...This piece of writing, like many of yours, causes me to shed tears. Tears because I miss you, tears because I have walked those streets with you, and tears because you Virginia Rasmussens are characters in your own fairy tale, as vibrant and devour-able as those in the books you check out from this place. Thank you for writing. It is a gift to me.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09877102294217452140noreply@blogger.com
