Methinks I know what that part is. Does it have anything to do with a hidden mountain pass?
OK, back to the topic at hand. I read LOTR and the Hobbit in four days, though I really read the Hobbit in two or three hours, and RotK in three or four. The other two were read amongst various activities throughout the weekend. If I had the chance again I could probably read the whole thing in two days. (mm, project for next summer's road trip) The Silmarillion took me a couple of months(like 4 or 5) because I stopped halfway through due to the "there is so much going on I can't keep half of it straight!" syndrome. I finished the other half in less than a week.
Now it takes me a long time to finish the books, I started the Fellowship at the end of may, and I am still not done with TTT!
