Excellent resource for Tolkien fans
Revisado: 10-24-24
This book does an excellent job of summarizing the books written by Tolkien himself, as well as books about Tolkien by other scholars. It also has information about the many sub categories of the fandom, online resources, and ways to get involved as a fan.

In The World of J.R.R. Tolkien, you will join Dr. Dimitra Fimi to delve into Tolkien’s complex and multilayered mythology, examining all these ingredients and more. In these 10 lectures, you will explore and appreciate Middle-earth as medieval, mythological, and modern, a literary creation that was shaped by forces old and new. And you may be surprised to discover just how much of Tolkien’s legendarium was constructed posthumously, with his son Christopher compiling and publishing many of Tolkien’s later works after his death.

So much insight
Revisado: 07-23-24
I have been a Tolkien fan for about 30 years, and read the Silmarillion 3 times in the past 20 years. I watch various YouTube and TikTok channels on Tolkien and listen to every audiobook available. I still learned some new things listening to this series, as well as remembering some forgotten bits. So well done. Engaging and well researched.

Do you love your job? Then this book probably isn't for you. This is poetry for everyone who works to live but doesn't live to work. These are verses of corporate commiseration, bite-size business dread for the alarm clock averse. So help clear your "case of the Mondays" with this set of cynical snipes and sighs and remind yourself you're not alone (even if everybody else went home early).

You can tell the author knows the office grind first hand. Saying the things we all think but never say. Perfect for anyone in a cubicle farm.

A poetry chapbook collection of over 30 poems exploring the mysteries and wonders of our universe. Ranging from whimsical imaginings of how distant astronomers may be contemplating us, to more serious contemplations of our place among the stars, poet Ron Perovich shares his own love of astronomy and invites listeners to delight in the scale of the cosmos with him.

This was a engaging listen. It helped me pass the time, but also kept me thinking. I found myself remembering things I once knew, and hoping for more knowledge to come. Thoughtful, entertaining, enjoyed.

A really fun collection of poems. A few that tug the heartstrings, and many that elicit a chuckle. My favs were “Farewell, First Mate”, “Steam Pug”, and the epic tale at the end.

Brain over Binge provides both a gripping personal account and an informative scientific perspective on bulimia and binge eating disorder. The author, Kathryn Hansen, candidly shares her experience as a bulimic and her alternative approach to recovery. Brain over Binge is different from other eating disorder books which typically present binge eating and purging as symptoms of complex emotional and psychological problems.

I have a history of binge eating a few times each year, and a bad habit of snacking. This will really help me kick the bad habit and move on. I highly recommend this book to anyone with food issues.

The ancient culture of the Celts, with its folklore and fairytales, has sparked the imagination of many. The mythological creatures, stories, and legends have their enchanting flair and have certainly been the topic of many historians and scholars. It is time to dive deeper into some of the best-known myths and epic ventures of the gods, goddesses, and magical realms from the British Isles.

Rambling but some mythology
Revisado: 01-11-19
Very rambling and switching topics. But does have some mythology in the middle. Clear narrator but he’s not great with Irish names.

Dublin is the Republic of Ireland's capital and largest city, named from the Irish dubh linn, meaning "black pool". The name comes from the fact that the site of the city was formerly a black, slimy expanse of mud through which the River Liffey flowed sluggishly to the sea. It now has a pleasant setting on the east coast of the Irish Sea, looking out over Dublin Bay, with a long, sandy shoreline to its north.

Dry writing style and just not the info that interests me. The narrator is easy to understand but also dry. I tuned out a lot. Clearly written but put me to sleep.

With oodles of steamy romance, paranormal time travel, adventure, and much more, Outlander is sweeping the nation. From over a dozen volumes to its newest incarnation as a breathtaking Starz show, it continues to delight, even with subtle, clever changes. But what was life really like then - from kilts and bagpipes to selkies and the fair folk? Who was Bonnie Prince Charlie and why was his campaign so disastrous for the Highlanders?

This is well written and organized. But a lot of the info is the same as stuff in the outlandish companion books.

It took me a while to get used to her accents & speaking style. Also she has some interests that I dont share. But overall, it's quite an interesting take on England & I got several vacation ideas.
