My review may or may not have anything to do with the fact I read this in school and would have literally wished to be anywhere else.
I was so impressed by the world Tolkien was able to create, but honestly I found most of the characters really annoying. I also thought that it was just boring.

Read it again, probably for the 3rd time, mainly in preparation for viewing the movie version coming out later this year.
