I'm reading The Hobbit again. I have read it twice before but I'm planning to go to see that movie and I decided it would be good to read it again. This time in English though. It seems like many shades and levels disappear when a book is translated to another language. I have start a project to read all my childhood favorites, like above-mentioned The Hobbit, again, but in English. It is interesting how a bad translation can make a book much worse than it really is.
