I was 6 when my father read LotR to me aloud... When I was 8, I read it by myself and totally fell in love with it. By now I've read it 15 times. I've also read The Hobbit, The Sil and The UT. I would like to read HoME-series, but you can't get them from Finland. I should probably order from Amazon.com.
My age: I'm 15 next tuesday...

Hey guys, I'm under age, so I guess I qualify for the underage club? I just got registered, so be nice please. I have another name, muhahahaha. I'm always watching you. That should be a "had" anyway... lost it to a friend. *sniff* I'm 18 in July so I'll be able to be here until then.

I saw the movies first. I have been reading the books since I was 13, that was in 2003, so about when ROTK came out. I have The Hobbit, The Silmarillion, and soon to be the new one (children of hurin), but I have not yet read the hobbit or the sil. Lately, I have just been going to them for reference.

I recommend you to read the Sil before reading The Children of Húrin. I bet you'll understand more about it and enjoy it more when you know the background.

Yeah. If I do buy COH, I will read the Sil beforehand. But before I read the Sil I have to finish those dozens of other books that I bought that I still have to read...

I recommend you to start with the Sil, because I bet it's the best...

You're right, Thinlomien. Children of Hurin will come up before I know it, and I be out at Border's once again picking up another book to add to the I-have-yet-to-read pile...
