Heh. Couldn't resist doing this book survey. I'm such a book geek. And for the record (or for Mary to call me her hero for some odd reason), FotR is on for the 9th time in the past three days. And am I watching it? Of course. I'm bored, feeling kind of crummy, and being a glutton for punishment for when Haldir appears and for when Boromir dies.

Anyway.
