TV show here in the US, Young Sheldon, had an episode where he starts reading the Lord of the Rings.



Minor nerd rush, I have the same edition of those books!



I just recently had to go buy a new set, those were starting to have pages fall out.

Well, it's the Season of falling leaves now …

(Sorry for the pun, couldn't resist!) But I still have my very first edition of LotR, beneath newer editions. It is in a quite shabby state, but I still appreciate it. Some decades ago I bought it from money earned as a scholar by giving homework help to a girl.

Pretty cool. My set is from the library discard pile and it too has seen better days. Embarrassingly, I've never read the series. Go ahead, throw the books at me!

Sort of Off Topic: The Ghostbusters 3 movie was filmed in my town this summer. My grandpa's old gas station is in it (it's the drive-in). It will be really neat to see it on the big screen!

Took me several tries to get through the Lord of the Rings. Now I try and read it every other year or so. Never could finish Dune.

Didn't even know they were making a Ghostbusters 3 movie.
