Boring - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I think the first chapter is meant to be 'boring' or at least uneventful because it portrays the peaceful life of the hobbits in the shire (to which the rest of the book is such a contrast). Just wait till you get to the next chapter, that's when it really kicks off.

When you're reading a second time (or nth time in my case!) the first chapter is a good relaxing chapter, full of interesting hobbit-lore snippets and connects LoTR to the Hobbit too. Keep on reading!
