First Line Fridays - The Fellowship of the Rings

Happy Friday!!!

Summer is fast approaching! Do you have any specific Go-To reads for summer? I remember reading The Lord of the Rings trilogy (and The Hobbit) for the first time in summer. So it will forever be branded as "Summer" for me! Do you know what the First Line is from The Fellowship of the Ring? It is probably one of my very favorite opening lines EVER!

Chapter I

A Long-Expected Party
