A really fun examination into the world-building mind of Tolkien. Certainly not for everyone, and I can see someone saying it is repetitive, but I really loved it and how thorough it was.

This book has a lot of random lore and I love it. Holy shit Tolkien's math with Elf aging reminded me of math class and stressed me out though

Also, I don't care what Tolkien says. Gandalf isn't 5'6, and Aragorn still has a beard.
