The story is a bit hard to read than most books, the verbiage is not common, and some of the descriptions can be a little lofty, but it is all worth it.

In my opinion, this is the way these books were meant to be experienced: read aloud in dramatic fashion, just as Bilbo did at his birthday party in the movie.

And it really is beautifully written prose, too, and way funnier than I expected. Also the themes of not losing hope and friendship stand out even much clearer.
I was disappointed to realise, that Arwen being a badass good girl and saving Frodo from the ringwraiths is a movie only thing, though..
