Re: 1st time

In my opinion this is the case because after all the Lotr has so many pages. you can't remember all of the events and you notice some things only after you have read the books again. i remember that i was absolutely fascinated when i had finished the story for the first time and i didn't want it to stop, so i felt i had to read it again. i didn't want to leave this world that seemed so real to me. i wanted to return and go on the journey with the characters who had become something like friends to me again.
i can't explain why most people read it when they were young though.

Behold the King of Moria!</p>
