It's been a long time since I've continued my LotR marathon. Life became really hectic last year and I couldn't finish. Since then, I have reread The Hobbit and The Fellowship of the Ring and have enjoyed both of them tremendously all over again. Even more so than the last time. It was a thrill bein...

Remember the scene in The Parent Trap, where Lindsay Lohan's character surprises a table of adults by knowing how to drink wine like a connoisseur? That's what reading The Two Towers is like. If The Fellowship of the Ring was like fine wine, it was a fine wine that simply needed to age before it...

Tolkien is a major writer of fantasy. I remember watching his amazing trilogy Lord of the Rings long time ago, and I still remember how much I liked it. Now I finished reading his trilogy and I feel nostalgic! Probably I'm gonna watch the movies again tonight!I loved the books. Recommended :)

When I first read this book, and The Fellowship of the Ring, it was in preparation for seeing the movies. I had never read them before then, and I felt like it would be better to read them first, just so I'd have the books as my first experience with the stories. I wound up losing steam with that ...

Once I started reading this book it felt like I had dived back into the journey and had never left it. I felt like I was there with them, that I was fighting with them and journeying with them. I really enjoyed all the action in this one, it felt like just the right amount, and I liked the progressi...

"But," said Sam, and tears started in his eyes, "I thought you were going to enjoy the Shire, too, for years and years, after all you have done." "So I thought too, once. But I have been too deeply hurt, Sam. I tried to save the Shire, and it has been saved, but not for me. It must often be so, Sam,...
