Re: How many times have you read the Lord of the Rings

Urk. The long dreaded question is at last asked. I first read LoTR around 1972. I estimate that I have read it about 20-25 times (probably closer to 25). Silmarillion - 15-20 times. UT - 10 times. Etc.

And yes I still enjoy it and still come upon bits that I missed or have forgotten.
