This was such a cute book I love it. A full war in the last 50 pages was a bit random and Smaugs death was a bit uneventful but I’m willing to overlook that lol.

4.5 Siempre quise leer ésta renombrada historia, que en sí misma está llena de tantos detalles y pistas que te mantienen a la expectativa. Una historia amena, con variedad de personajes, criaturas y lugares.

I truly enjoyed Bilbo's adventures. Amazing how he was the burglar but in reality he was the leader.

This is a reread for me and man do I still love this book. I am trying to actually read the whole Lord of the Rings series this year and thought this would help get me back into the mindset to read fantasy again because I have been avoiding it for a few months now. 

I read this via audiobook (highly recommend!) and I can still say that this is an all time favorite of mine. I read this when I was in middle school and I still enjoy this book today. I cannot wait to continue onto the trilogy finally. I think I am also going to watch the movies after reading all of these books since my fiancé is a die-hard fan. 

I don’t necessarily know what I should say about this book other than it is a great entry book into fantasy books that has no romance within it. Great for kids or adults alike!
