    ladyofthelie:

    has anyone read these? tell me if i should 🙂

    The Drawing of the Three is the best, but definitely check out the first book in the series if you haven’t (The Gunslinger). Out of the Silent Planet is great, too! It’s the first of a trilogy (Perelandra and That Hideous Strength being the other two). Not sure about the Tolkien book. Could never really get into his stuff, but I’ve heard good things.

    I couldn’t stop laughing…

    Roland:
    “Don’t do it again,” he said to the Lady in the wheelchair.

    Detta:
    “What you goan do if I do? Rape me?”

    Roland:
    “If we were going to rape you, you would be one well-raped woman by now,” the gunslinger said evenly.
