It's been a while since I last read LOTR and this was a fun quick trip back. The art is stunning and the texts were ok, nothing super fancy but still easy to read and informative.

Stranger Things energy + Stephen King's super thought out and elaborate descriptions of everythin. Felt a bit too slow at a couple of times but then I couldn't read fast enough at others so overall I loved it.
