Amazingly written, and beautifully immersive. So much better than the first one, where I was constantly frustrated with Frodo. Finally everyone is using their braincells, and the story is moving faster. Love that this book gives more dimension to the 'side-characters' and shows us how every person has something to contribute.

Special shoutout to Sam, who is so gloriously in love, and is honestly one of the more intelligent characters in the story.

this is ur typical 2nd book in a trilogy. usually your least favorite and just a build up to the third book. i found the ending a little bit rushed as well.

If you like spiders, even evil ones, then the section with Shelob may bother you?
