it was nice reading about the adventures of bilbo et al. i liked the tone of this a lot more than the movies and found it to be a very relaxing read. it was very nice to sit on the couch and read with a cup of tea.
it was slow, but that could also be chalked up to the print edition i was reading since it had small font and not a lot of paragraphing or spacing.
i highly recommend this still, i almost wish there was more detail like how the movie creators expand on a lot of the scenes, but at the same time it felt nice that it was not so detailed in the book which left it more open ended and up to the interpretation of the reader.

I remember being in 6th grade and my friends had to read this for their book group and they all said it was boring. I guess if you are a 6th grader I could see it, but I was scared ever since of reading it. Now that I have, I have determined my classmates were crazy. This book is great and I recommend it.
