LoTR and The Sil [In reply to] Can't Post

I think I love the equally. (This is what I tell Neil when he asks me who I love more out of him and my cats. In that case, it's quite clearly a lie, the cats come first) ahem, but back to the question! I have read LoTR more times than I can remember, and it never gets boring. It always gives me the same sense of wonder. And, having just re-read The Silmarillion, for perhaps the third time, I can finally say I understand it! Having read it before at a young age, I found it quite tough at times, but I'm so glad I persevered, it's been well worth it. It covers such a vast period of time, and the details are wonderful. Some of the writing is absolutely beautiful, the descriptions of various places can create such clear mental images!
