My entire being is aching with an emotion I cannot put into words. The end of this trilogy has always been emotional and bittersweet when watching the movies, but the book amped that up to a hundred. The last five-six chapters were heart throbbing and amazing.

This is one of those classics that you flip through upon finishing thinking, wow, that was a long journey. But every step of the way made it more beautiful and worth every second. This may have taken me almost a year to read, but in reality, I read the last three hundred pages in two days.


This is, in every sense of the phrase, a timeless classic. I’ve always loved the movies, but I had no idea what I was missing in the books. Especially the end of this one. I loved how things wrapped up in the Shire. It was really satisfying and moving. Though I’m sad to see the trilogy end, it was a very satisfying conclusion to the tale of Frodo and the ring, and I will forever treasure these words in my heart.
