Complicated
I went into this with high expectations and I wasn't disappointed. Tolkien beautifully captured the spirit of a get-away weekend with the boys, coupled with lovable characters and mysterious adventures.
The writing style is magnificent, and I quite enjoyed the interludes with the songs and his and his direct address to the reader. It made the whole story more immersive.
I wish we'd gotten to know Smaug a little more since I found him to be a really interesting and well-introduced character, but otherwise, I have no criticism.
Excited to read The Lord of The Rings now!
