Just finished Fellowship and started Two Towers. I've been reading slowly, but I'm enjoying really paying attention to the details this time. Having the movies fresh in my head, it's been fun really focusing on the detail that was omitted for the film. It's also been interesting because I don't necessarily have the actors from the movies in my head when I visualize the characters. I still carry the images from the Brothers Hildebrandt calendars from the 70s floating around in my head. I can kick myself for not getting their coffee table book I saw at B and N 10 years ago. I think it had almost all their collected works. I keep looking for it whenever I go to Powell's here in Portland, but haven't seen it.
