Adriana | 3888 comments My favorite books were Middle Grade books haha (:
Savvy and its sequel Scumble were just everything I could hope for and more in great reads. I kind of want to read The Lord of the Rings trilogy and Hobbit next year. I've been looking at behind the scenes type cast interviews and I realized how much I enjoyed the movies and how much I would enjoy the books. Do you happen to know what I would read first? The trilogy or The Hobbit?
