Tolkien Reading Day 2017 Fun!

Posted by on March 20, 2017 at 8:08 pm

Tolkien Reading Day is almost upon us! March 25th each year is set aside to honor the work of J. R. R. Tolkien (and celebrate the Gondorian New Year and the downfall of Sauron as well).

Initiated in 2003 by the Tolkien Society, Tolkien Reading Day is organized around a particular theme each year. This year’s theme is “Poetry and Songs in Tolkien’s Fiction.”

Middle-earth News joins in the Tolkien Reading Day celebrations each year. We have some surprises in store for this year’s celebration, so be sure to keep watching here as we approach the big day itself! Hint: there will be giveaways involved! We won’t spoil the surprises just yet, but we are happy to be partnering with our friends at Oloris Publishing for something very special. So for now — keep it secret, keep it safe!

What will you be reading on March 25?

Author: Valdís is a classic nerd, with many geeky interests, but her life-long love of Tolkien rules them all. She was completely hooked the first time that she read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings at age 8. Since then, she has read the books at least once a year, and delves into Middle-earth at every opportunity with a fervor that would make any dwarf proud. She also deeply loves Peter Jackson’s films, and defends them staunchly when need arises. When reality forces her out of Middle-earth, Valdís is a university professor, a wife, mother of two daughters, and servant to two cats.
