Two reading projects this year

I've been thinking about two reading projects this year - a Hobbit/Lord of the Rings dive (focusing on language & the ways Tolkien-as-professor bleeds into the books), and reading some classic Science Fiction to give myself some context about what this genre once was.

I'm still not quite sure how I'm going to log these - podcast, blog, discussions on Imzy, or just putting ideas in a void, but anyone interested in either topic, let me know.
