5.0

Finished rereading after procrastinating it a lil bit for the last months and I thought "Well! this is a book that doesnt need a review because. Well because its one of those stories that are universally loved"  but I simply must say that there is no way I wont cry everytime i read the last two chapters (and the appendix). Its the culmination of the best fantasy work ever written and, frankly, the best ending a story of this magnitude could have. I literally struggle to put into words the emotions that these books evoke in me.
