I listened to the audio book narrated by Rob Inglis and I must say he made it a very entertaining listen.
As far as the story itself is concerned, I liked the beginning but
as the group’s journey progressed I sadly got bored with it. And the chapter where Bilbo encounters Gollum was so annoying I almost
considered skipping it.
I'm a bit sad because I really wanted
to like this book with it being such a
popular high fantasy classic but
apparently I'm really struggling to like this genre.
