Book # 7 - The Fellowship of the Ring (The Lord of the Rings Book 1 of 3) by J.R.R. Tolkien

The Lord of the Rings is a book that most people are already familiar with... so there isn't a need to recap the story. There's Frodo and the ring, Gandalf the Wizard, Gollum, Aragorn... etc.

This will be the third time that I've read this book and after reading The Fellowship of the Ring it the most enjoyable time so far. There is just so much information throughout the book that Tolkien just casually throws out there that it can be hard to take it all in on a first (or second reading). Seeing the films multiple times also helps. This is a book meant to be read several times... and it is well worth it. There will always be new details to be picked up.

Did I mention that this is one of my favorite books of all time? The first book gets an A+.
