The articles sound good.... sometime after the movie hype settles down we may actually start up another reading thread of our own again, for Two Towers, where we all read it together, if folk are still interested. Did you participate in it when we did FoTR?
I can't tell which days might be good, I would hold off for the next week or even two, we are gonna be flooded with TTT viewings reports reviews and discussion, and there won't even be time to read all of that, I would predict.

I missed the reading of FOTR here. At the time I was unaware of the Tolkien community threads here on FR. It was only about a month or two ago when I noticed a few threads and asked to be put on the ping lists.
You are right about holding off for a week or so to start the Tolkien Virgin articles. Even before starting them, I wanted to get some input and also give people enough time to be ready for the reading schedule if they wanted to read at the same pace. I know that I will have to find where I have hidden away my copy of The Silmarillion (either that, or ask someone for a hardbound version as a gift for the holidays). :-)
