The one reason why LOTR is still, just, my favourite is the character of Frodo. I love the elvishness in LOTR - always did - but now I wish there was more of it. But then, my favourite character is a very *elvish* hobbit. I'd also describe myself as a hobbit with a strong dash of elf.
The earlier lands attract me more nowadays than the Third Age ones too ... although I do love the Shire.
I always found Rohan and Gondor a bit of a bore, if I'm honest.
