You can only take one book with you to read on a vacation…
Which would it be and why? 😉

An astonishing supper for me tonight. Sourdough Danish pastry from Empire State Coffee in Dundee, served warm. With their coffee made at home from a bag bought this afternoon. This is all delicious. With The Fall of Numenor book by Tolkien, large print version, to read. #Supper #CoffeeShop #Coffee #Pastry #Baking #Tolkien #FallOfNumenor #Books #Reading #Drinking #Eating #Dundee #Scotland #Sourdough

I picked up The Fall of Númenor. On the one hand, it doesn’t really have any new material. But it collects nearly all the writing about Tolkien’s Second Age into a chronological order, interspersed with beautiful illustrations by Alan Lee.
So it probably isn’t for everyone, but I’ve been looking forward to it.
