How old were you the first time you read LOTR? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I bought LotR after my confirmation. I had then just turned 14. Read the Hobbit and the Silmarill right after I finished LotR.

I didn't read the LotR until this past December. I have since read The Hobbit and The Simarillion and am working on The Unfinished Tales.

I read the FotR at 14 as a liturature project in High school. That was quite a few years ago. Managed to get one of the First Printing, First Edition hard bound Silms when they hit the shelves, actually had one pre-ordered at the book store, got the 4th one out of the box! Have not read much in the HoME set yet.
