I mean there is a reason they call Tolkien the Father of Fantasy.

The Hobbit made me realize that most fantasy books i have read are basically entirely unoriginal and take heavy heavy heavy inspiration from all of Tolkien’s ideas. i mean the man invented the word “dwarves”. every time i think of amarantha from acotar being “queen under the mountain” i’m like….you stole that from the hobbit.

This book was SO CUTE and i would like to pay tribute to my homies Thorin, Fili, and Kili RIP y’all were real ones.
