Reading progress update: I've read 358 out of 398 pages.
A lot has happened in the last 200 pages or so, chiefly among these events a main character dying. Frodo has made it to Rivendell, where a secret convention was held which resulted in creating "The Fellowship of the Ring," which is how this book got its name. The company sets out and must take the dangerous road through the mines of Moria which is where the tragedy occurs. Where I last stopped reading Frodo and company were in the realm of the tree elves and the Galadriel one of the three elves that carried a lesser ring of power. Here they rested and recovered from the loss of their good friend and now are preparing to leave the elves to continue on their journey.
