    So I'm a new father, and I want to read my daughter, and I don't have a lot of time to do it.
    So, I'm proposing a book reading, one chapter a week, starting with Chapter 1 on February 25th, and ending 19 weeks later on June 30th.
    We'll do our comments just like for the Lord of the Rings.
    Anyone else want to go on an adventure?

    I was rather invested in the initial planning of the LotR read through. I think I made it 3 chapters until life caught up to me, I fell behind, and never finished. So the best I can give you is, I'm interested, but no grantees of active participation. :D

    I might try again, Maybe listening to a good audiobook Variant, since I have no idea we're my copy of the hobbit is. Probably in a box in my parents barn somewhere.

    I'd be interested since I've never read it in english and want to, but I'm physically unable to stop reading after a single chapter :)
