Pretentious badfic! I mean, the original version was good for improving my vocabulary, but it was a bore to read :\ I read LOTR for the first time when I was 16 and I quite enjoyed it, though I admit some parts are very, very hard to go through.

I know exactly how you feel! I like learning stuff, but I miss picking up a book just because :(

Oh my! You are an X-woman and your power is Reading Like a Boss :O
