rabidsamfan: samwise gamgee, I must see it through (Default)
Packing for Crickhollow

The worst part was the books. Never had a book come into Bag End without finding a permanent home. Frodo was torn between leaving them for the Sackville-Bagginses to ignore or sending them to Buckland where they’d gather dust until such time as his disappearance became his assumed death and they’d be dragged back to Bag End or sold at auction.

In the end he packed them, because no one would believe he would leave them behind, but on each flyleaf he wrote the name of the person who would love that book best, with “gift of Frodo Baggins” underneath.
