Well Maya, you should try rereading it and you'll find lots of things you didn't notice before. At least I did. But you might not, I guess. I think I read FotR for the first time in 4th grade, and I didn't think then that it was confusing at all, but rereading it I have found so many things that I simply didn't notice before or seemed unimportant. But maybe when I reread it again I'll find more things that I've missed...
