I'm listening to The Silmarillion by J.R.R. Tolkien (read by Andy Serkis, but I'm also actively reading a PDF of the book while I listen to it) (lemmygrad.ml)

Thoughts on this book?

Thoughts on The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit?

I might watch The Rings of Power but I've heard mixed things on it. What do you all think of it?

Mostly though: I'm hoping that some people here can expand on what I'm reading so far.

'Cause honestly, I do like what I'm reading, I do, and that's because I genuinely like the mythological tone that the world-building takes. And Numenor as an "Atlantis" is a fine way to do things, but honestly, I doubt they'll be able to do much with it in whatever Amazon property they decide to make of it (which, I mean, is fine). I wonder if there are other shows or serials besides The Rings of Power that are coming out? Either way: I really like the beginning and how everything started with music and song.

Your thoughts?

Same, actually.

I'm also going to Guatemala later.

Soon, I'll be having my graduation ceremony for university afterward too.
