The Lord of the Rings. What can I say?
I am a huge lover of both the book series and film series and absolutely everything to do with it. Tolkien is an undeniable genius. The world he has created is so fleshed out, one could actually believe it exists. He is the god-father of the fantasy genre and I would read any of his works, Middle-Earth related or otherwise.

The entire Lord of the Rings trilogy is so wonderful from start to finish and I invested so much into both the storyline and the Characters. I believed every word and truly felt like I was on an adventure.

I believe Lord of the Rings to be one of those books that everybody should read, like kids in school are forced to read Shakespeare or An Inspector Calls, Lord of the Rings should be one of those books encouraged on young people. It's such a breathtaking story.
It has everything anyone could want from a book trilogy, good, evil, love, hate, friendship, loyalty, betrayal, bravery, battles, and ultimately the good guys coming out on top.

I am very much obsessed with Lord of the Rings, the way many people are with Harry Potter. When I mention Lord of the Rings, I know a lot of people who say, 'Oh yeah, I like those films' but very few who would say 'I like those books.'
It saddens me to think there are people who don't know the wonder of these books, or people who simply aren't interested. They are truly missing out on something magical.

There's a difference between 'my favorite book' and 'the best book I've read' and though this isn't actually my favorite book (though it's certainly up there) this is without a doubt the best book I've ever read and I full heartedly encourage anyone who hasn't read this to do so.
It's a journey you won't regret.
