Day 2

In your own space, share a book/song/movie/tv show/fanwork/etc that changed your life. Something that impacted on your consciousness in a way that left its mark on your soul.




I was given this book when I was about 10 or 11 by an older cousin whom I loved and respected. I was told to "read this first to understand the world (of Tolkien), then read the Lord of the Rings" since the Silmarillion would not be published for more than a decade.

So I read that first, then the others -- and never really looked back.

I read that first, too :) Again it was the Elves in that which drew me in.
