Those disappearing Lords of the Ringses...

Um... *looks sheepish* I found my hardback LotR. It was... er... next to my computer, where I now remember taking it a few weeks ago for reference while writing something. Pellinor has admitted that perhaps his old single volume copy never made it out of his parents' house. So it seems as if we're just a two Lord of the Rings household, after all, and that both copies are accounted for. Either that, or the person who stole our other copies has given us false memories to cover his tracks.

It occurs to me that most normal people would probably think that having two copies of The Lord of the Rings is a bit excessive. However, I am confident that, compared with many people reading this, we class as total lightweights.



(Interpret "own" in a way that works for you - e.g. whether you want to count copies in your house that are technically owned by someone else but are now shared, or if you want to count copies that you would claim as your own, but aren't currently living with you.)

We have my one-volume India-paper inna-battered-box, [livejournal.com profile] malaheed's copy of the three-volume Allen & Unwin pbk with the same cover as my mother's when I was growing up (and possibly an extra FotR, TTT or RotK to replace a missing volume that may or may not have resurfaced), and a set in Spanish. I think I have it in French somewhere, but not in this country. I keep meaning to buy it in Italian and German.
