What do you feel when you read the book?

[Orogaerion]

I dont really remember my exact feelings when i read Lotr the first time, but generally I was in blind awe of the complexities of the book. The times i have read it the last year i have almost cried when i read the last bit where Bilbo, Gandalf etc departed. it is kinda weird feeling to be that sad cause of fictional characters.
