Lembas for the Soul by Catherine Kohman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Well I would not quite rank it up there with Chicken Soup for the Soul book but it sure was a short fun and entertaining read. Lots if vignettes of how different fan became exposé to Lord of the Rings and how it changed their life, mostly by connecting with fellow " Ringers" . Most stories tell of expanding social lives via web groups and fan experiences. Quite a few people met their future spouse via Lord of the Rings. Many people began to write fan fiction and expand their creativity. This led to story writing and art work.
The Lord of the Rings was loaded with spiritual lesson, unfortunately the book did not center on them. There were several stories where people learned about friendship, courage and other values. But it goes deeper and the bill did not catch it.
For someone entering the community this is still a great book to have. Enjoy the stories.
