Plus, this might be the only way I can actually get through/invested in The Hobbit. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by. - Katie Just Another Girl and Her Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16895231437169823163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-819285584629633867.post-33280279476578278422017-11-21T05:58:15.989-08:002017-11-21T05:58:15.989-08:00Right.

The good news about the move is that I don't have to do the packing and hauling of all my books (we had our pre-packout inspection recently and they estimate that I have between 70-80 boxes of books). I'm not going to need wall decor because all my walls are going to be lined by bookcases.

I've officially DNF'd only 2 books in my entire life, and The Hobbit is one of them.
