The Return of the King by J.R.R. Tolkien
5.0

And oh my lord, these books were so hard to read for me. It went slow and the language was really challenging. I used 4 months to read the first book, but I've only used 3 weeks on the last two! I'm sort of proud. And even if the books were hard and sometimes boring - I fell almost asleep several times - THEY WERE BEAUTIFUL AND AMAZING AND I'M SO GLAD I FINALLY READ THEM. I want to read them again later, when I'm even more grown and maybe I'll read them more easily then.

I feel almost nostalgic and sad for being done. It is a series I've been planning to read for years - and here I am - FINISHED. These books are so important and truly great. I feel fulfilled in my very soul.
