The Hobbit
I read The Hobbit after watching The Lord of the Rings – Fellowship of the Rings last December 2001. I had my friend from the US send me the four books of J.R.R. Tolkien (The Lord of the Rings – trilogy and The Hobbit). The Hobbit basically is the introduction of the trilogy.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon
I just have to blog this: Twilight Saga: New Moon’s cast sending a greeting to Italy. Love the fact that they are together again, doing the movie. Can’t wait to see the movie. But we have 8 more months to wait. It’s a long time to wait, don’t you think so? And yes, Dakota Fanning is acting Jane’s character in New Moon. I think she’s the best person to do it.
