Tolkien's writing continues to provide very little emotion or depth, so Andy Serkis as the narrator does a lot of heavy lifting with his voice acting. But it was not enough to make this book enjoyable.

i was expecting arwen to appear, but she didn’t. if she did, i’d have probably gave it more than 3 stars. and the love triangle ? a big no.
the ending was very bittersweet, and i thought it could be better. i’m sad that i’ll leave these characters behind, though.
