My Tolkien/Middle Earth collection. Includes (left to right):
The Lord of the Rings Sketchbook by Alan Lee
The Silmarillion by J. R. R. Tolkien
The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien, with illustrations by Alan Lee
The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien (Annotated edition)
The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien (Collectors edition)
The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien (50th Anniversary Edition) 
The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien (movie cover edition)
The Children of Hurin by J. R. R. Tolkien 
The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrun (as told by) J. R. R. Tolkien
Tales From the Perilous Realm by J. R. R. Tolkien
A Tolkien Miscellany by J. R. R. Tolkien
The Unfinished Tales (of Numenor and Middle Earth) by J. R. R. Tolkien 
and The Lord of the Films by J. W. Braun
I’m crazy proud and possibly overprotective of this collection (I bought my brother his own copy of LotR so that he wouldn’t have to use mine), and I intend for it to get much larger. 
And yes, I’m one of those people who own multiple copies of the same book. Sue me.
Tolkien has been such a huge part of my life for the past ten-eleven years, so I just thought I’d share this for the heck of it.

One day, my life will be complete…
