i first got introduced to the book (old full edition FotR,TTT,RotK) in secondary school and read it with the enthuiasm of a child playing with a new toy i found it almost impossible to put it down. i didnt read again until a few years ago when i read the hobbit and only recently have i got back to FotR and now im on TTT and i read with the same enthuiasm as ever only with a better understanding of tolkens genius.
Thats my story short but sweet.
