Sigh. Read LOTR the first time when I was twelve, and I tried to read it again. I did not pick it up again for 20 years because the first time the ending broke my heart. I saw the movie just the other day...and now I know, as I came out of the movie sobbing hysterically, I can't ever read to the end of the Return of the King. Sigh. Sorry, I'm a big sap, but I just can't do it.

Meela, don't feel bad. They are wonderful, enjoyable books with a GREAT story. Don't worry about what anyone else says. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img] Like I just said, I can't bring myself to ever pick up (at least, the Return of the King), again, but that's just 'cause, like I said, I'm a big emotional sap. [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img] Read them and ENJOY them.
