What made you love the books so much? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I didn't even know who Tolkien was until about a year and a half ago when I read a biograhpy on C.S. Lewis for a book report. (This was in 4th grade) And in the book, the author made it sound like it was just a really long book that is boring, so I wasn't really sure if I should read it.

Three things I like about Tolkien is:

1) He is very discriptive and almost makes you believe there is such thing as Middle Earth

2) The characters are very well developed.

3) His books are so much different then all the other books on Earth.
