    I'm planning to read LOTR in English...I don't know if I make it... We'll see...

    I started reading Fellowship of the Ring long ago in polish, but I have never end it :D. I can say (don't kill me either Fizyk :p) that it was boring to me at the beginning and that's why I have stoped reading it...
