saddest part in book

[MLD-Grounds-Keeper-Willie]

Yeah, i also think that the Pippin part was sad. I swear I reread that part like 15 times in disbelief. I kept looking for something that I read wrong before I decided to read on. But when i found out later that he lived, I was so happy and relieved.

I also think that the part when Sam gives the ring back to Frodo is sad. It shows how powerful the ring is. Sam willingly gave teh ring back to Frodo, but still he was reluctant. And it can tear two friends apart like that, in the blink of an eye. What if Sam had been the slightest bit weaker or greedier. The ring can create so much wrong and evil, like Smeagol and Deagol. But I think the saddest part about that is that Sam gave Frodo the ring back, and then the Frodo hallucinates and sees Sam as an orc. That is so sad. And after this, it brings them closer than ever, but it makes it so much sadder when Frodo leaves.

And it's also sad how Denethor took the vision the wrong way and caused bloodshed of Gondor on itself, and how he commits suicide himself.
