That book was not very much fun to read.

LOL_wut?!?

The Lord of the Rings book series is absolutely magical; it’s like stepping into another reality.

The movies were nowhere near as good as the books.

I agree. The movies are great. To be fair I listened to the audiobook bc I rarely have time to sit around reading anymore. But it was hard to stay engaged even though the narrator was fine.

And before y’all give me shite, I read the Hobbit and Silmarillion.

You have my sword.

I started reading Fellowship after watching both it and the Two Towers movies, and only got halfway through Book 1 (so, a quarter of the way through Fellowship). I stopped because I realized that the amount I had read that could probably fill a whole movie, and we hadn’t gotten to hiding from the ringwraiths. Beyond what was shown in the film, nothing was going to matter in the long run, so why was I still reading.
