Review:

Loved this again! Not as much as the first book though. There were a lot of history parts that I didn't really care for. I also didn't like that the perspectives were half/half and not every other chapter a change.
But overall such a great read!

Review previously placed on my blog:

I'm currently reading The two towers by J.R.R. Tolkien. This is the second book in The lord of the rings series. I'm reading an owned copy and listening to the audiobook.

Not loving this as much as the first book, mainly because I don't like the part with Treebeard. He just talks too much about history and I don't really care about that haha. I went straight into this after reading the first book and that was a good choice. I really can see that this was originnaly three books in one. Still really liking it and it will probably be better later on.

I loved this as well! Not as much as the first book, but still really enjoyable. There was just a bit too much history in this and the perspectives were half/half of the book. Would have liked it to be swapped each chapter. Still, it's such a good story and I love the audiobook so much! I gave this one 4.5 stars. Going straight into the next one.

I'm currently reading The two towers by J.R.R. Tolkien. This is the second book in The lord of the rings series. I'm reading an owned copy whilst listening to the audiobook. This is my third time reading this series. This is an adult fantasy book series.

This one is my least favorite of the series. I gave this 4.5 stars the last time I read it. Curious to see if that is still the case. I know that I don't really like the set up of the book, because half of it is with certain perspectives and the other half with other perspectives. Would have been nice if that changed more often. But still a great read of course.

Yeah I think still my least favorite of the series. It was more difficult to read this one.
