I had to force myself to finish those books. I tried and failed to force read The Hobbit.


I thought the Hobbit read was amazing. I guess the school of thought is its not for everyone.

Read as a teenager and liked it. Came back and read some 30 years later and absolutely loved it.

I thought the LOTR movies were ok. There were parts that were great but as a whole they were just ok. I had a hard time with Elijah Wood and his overacting in parts.

I hope that the casting for Bilbo and Dwarves is good.

I dont like having to wait between movies but if it means a truer adaptation for the screen hell yeah.

Didn't know it was possible to dislike this book. One of my favorites of all time.

Silmarilion: Depressing/sad
The Hobbit: Incredibly fun
LOTR: Just awesome

All of them incredibly well written by one of the greatest authors of all time. Not tying to sound gay or something but the dude was a true genius, as a person in general, not just an author.
