I first read The hobbit in Class 6 when i was 10, i thouroughly enjoyed so i started LotR right away, and loved that, the the silm, but gave up as i couldn't understand it. I have reread the Hobbit and LotR 2/3 times a year, each time understanding it more and more each time. I finally got up the courage to read the silm again when i was 17 and found it extremely easy to read this time around. I wizzed through it, then again, then went onto UT and loved that so much that i reread it instantly, and i am now reading the silm again while listening to the BBC's adaptation on radio
