Recensire un libro tanto conosciuto non è facile, c'è sempre il rischio di cadere nel banale, ed è proprio quello che succederà a me, ne sono sicura. Ma è la prima opera di Tolkien che affronto, e scrivere le mie impressioni è assolutamente d'obbligo. Lo Hobbit viene spesso considerato il prequel de...

This edition should be allowed to summon an extra star, because it's The Lord of the Freakin' Rings, plus it's illustrated with 50 incredible paintings. As in, shiny art plates scattered throughout the book. They're exquisite, and they're an incredible help to someone like me, who has no ability to ...

I can't believe that I haven't read this before now (well actually I can believe it because I wasn't really big on sci-fi/fantasy much before and am now really branching out into it and other genres, but that is besides the point). It seems like everyone I know has read this and the three volumes of...

Ich schreib jetzt mal nicht, worum es im Hobbit geht, das sollte wirklich jeder wissen :D Sooo, letztes Jahr hab ich das Buch schonmal gelesen. Das war die Original Version, sozusagen die Kinderversion, in der Gollum noch aussah wie ein riesiger Frosch und die Zwerge als würden sie direkt von Schnee...

When I was younger and more patient, I'd read every story in an anthology. Now, as a grumpy old woman, I only read the stories by authors whose work I've enjoyed previously, or is on my wishlist. Such is the case with Fearie Tales...In Come Unto Me, John Ajvide Lindqvist has created a wonderfully Go...

The Hobbit, and subsequently The Lord of the Rings, is the book that is chiefly responsible for the fantasy genre today; either in influencing or reacting against it. Nearly fifteen years after reading The Hobbit for the first time, I returned to J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth to find the experience ...

Bramavo questo libro da così tanto che non so nemmeno dire quando o da chi ne ho sentito parlare la prima volta. E' sempre stato lì, nella mia lista dei desideri.. e poi, meraviglia: eccolo comparire sullo scaffale della mia libreria preferita! O forse se ne stava lì già da un po', peccato che l'ave...

As adventures go, this one is pretty fun and exciting. But I did feel there's a little less trust and unity between the dwarves and Bilbo than I expected. Not all dwarves are treated equally, some get more important roles while others barely get mentioned every few dozen pages or so. By the end of t...

The Hobbit. The one that started it all!The Hobbit is still my very favourite of all the Tolkien I have read (which includes The Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings). I'm not too sure if maybe this is because it was written for/told to his kids and so is primarily more of a children's fantasy sto...
