When I was eleven I read The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit and tried to read The Silmarillion. I locked myself up in my chamber and did nothing else than reading.
Favorite Tolkien character:
The Mouth of Sauron.. He is the only person who is kind of human in the Mordor army, but the most scaring person. Also he has the most interesting background of all characters. Just the name scares me.. Can't explain why exactly...
