I am Bilbo Baggins.

Reblog this with the answer to this question. I guess I am the girl version of thomas from the maze runner

Recent haul - Larkin and Didion's books on suggestion from Carry Brownstein - and Gaiman's "Norse Mythology" on my own want list for a while. It's going to be a great weekend.

when you see an interesting book in the store

shut up and take my money

New Arrivals: First American Edition of Tolkien’s THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING (1954). In the correct first printing dust jacket with the fold-out map of Middle Earth intact.

First volume of what is likely the most significant trilogy of books written in the last century. The first printing in the US was bound from British sheets, only 1,500 copies. A harder book than you might expect in the correct dust jacket, as points changed between the first 10 or so printings, and people are overly-fond of swapping dust jackets from later printings onto first printing books.

Tsk tsk…
