Lord of the Rings — one of the finest tales ever told.
Have read it 2 times and planning a third. Find something new each time I read it -— :-)

My late godparents gifted me with a copy of
The Hobbit when I was still in grade school over 45 years ago. Their gift the year before was
Misty of Chincoteague.
My 20 year old son at this moment is upstairs in the family room reading The Silmarillon. His head has been in the book 4-5 hours a day over Christmas break. Last night, the entire family, minus me, watched Return of the King on Blu-Ray. I was in the basement watching O'Reilly. Yeah, I know I need help...
I'm not as hard-core as some fans, but it sure seems apparent to me that Tolkien's work truly has stood the test of time.

Read the Hobbit and the Trilogy when I was about 25 years old. Thought it was a wonderfully written fantasy. Read it again about 5 years later, only this time as a classic “good vs, evil” in a broader sense. THAT’S when I “got it”.
