A great read, with interesting anecdotes, making the shitty topic very amusing!!

Great to read but can't imagine such a person get away with it so many times !!

A fairy tale with a twist and a story within a story!!

It is a beautiful depiction of a man's voyage finding the essence of life. One is often restless and weighs the pros and cons of every action in life. The gist of the book is that every person who does his job assiduously is a teacher/ guru. If one goes to learn even a simple task of looking at any object, it differs from person to person. The quote from the book

‘This stone is just a stone, it is worthless, it belongs to the world of Maya; but since in the cycle of transformations it might even become human....'
I loved this quote....it is true...when we talk of perspectives.

I loved it! The hobbit Bilbo Baggins' adventure was very interesting. I liked the character Gollum and I thought it wasnt fair that Bilbo stole his ring.
The dragon died too easily and that was a bit disappointing.
It was sad that Thorin died in the end.
Overall a great read!!

Too great a book. Can't imagine how Tolkien could weave such a story across so many pages.
I felt sad that Gollum died. He was a sweet pitiable character.
