Anyone rereading this winter?

Now that I'm done with AATE, I'm looking forward to doing my bi-decadal (there really should be a word for that so I won't be forced to make one up 
) reading of The Holy Trilogy. It has been five years. It is time. And for some reason, fall/winter always puts me in a Tolkien mood. I think it goes back to my first reading of The Hobbit one winter in junior high school. My life hasn't been the same since.
I'm pretty psyched this time. I'm going to finally crack open my mammoth Allen Lee illustrated $70.00 (which I got on sale) LOTR mega-tome. I've been reading crappy paperbacks for years. The covers have all fallen off. This time I'm going to do it in style. I think I'll even start out with my first addition hardback Silmarillion that I've been leaving untouched for over a decade. Ah, like a bottle of fine wine (or in my case, barleywine).
