I just picked up a copy of THE HOBBIT to start reading. I honestly can't remember when I last read it. :)

They're filming some of that right now here in New Zealand and not too far from where I live!

That would be so neat to live where they are filming that. The LOTR trilogy landscape was so beautiful! :)

Oh this is funny! I don't drop in here very often, but when I did, I found a post from ME on page one, from 2007, saying I was just re-reading the Gabaldon Outlander series through A Breath of Snow and Ashes because book 7 (An Echo in the Bone) was about to be released... or sort of 'about to' - 2008 I think.

and here it is five years later and I am....

re-reading Gabaldon's Outlander series start to finish through An Echo in the Bone because book EIGHT is sort of imminant (as in, maybe in 2013 sometime): Written in My Own Heart's Blood.

(The Scottish Prisoner, a shorter novel in the peripheral series of Lord John books, was recently released (November) so I was returned to the world of Jamie and Claire (although Claire isn't in that one), and was impelled to return to the entire series once again).

May I say, these are, indeed, very very good, and well worth re-reading? Maybe even more than twice?

Seven (big!) books in the 'main' series, two novels and several shorter novellas and stories in the Lord John series (which COULD be skipped, but shouldn't be) - and re-reading the entire body of work isn't a short-term program.

me just getting admission in university for graduation,,,,,

 I already finished Anna Karenina written by Leo Tolstoy and I'm going to read Vanity Fair: a novel without a Hero  by William Makepeace Thackeray.
