Indeed! I also tend to single out my favourite poems and songs.

My favorite re-reads are the dramatic and dangerous parts:
1. Eowyn defying the Nazgul 2. Galadriel and her Mirror 3. Frodo confronting Saruman at Bag End 4. The hobbits passing through Shelob's Lair 5. The whole Moria journey |

1---Unfinished Tales, esp. The Battle of the Fords of Isen
and The Disaster of the Gladden Fields. and The Quest of Erebor. (It's a pity PJ and Friends apparently didn't read it or they might have not made some of their sillier "improvements in their 3 LoTR movies). 2---The Ride of the Rohirrim. That chapter is really meant to be read aloud. Again, PJ botched it in RotK. Not only Eowyn but the whole charge. Theoden should have (in the dark with figures in shadow) have blown Guthlaf's horn and then charged with a bright light breaking through first on the flag (white horse upon a field of green) and then gradually bringing light to the field as the Rohirrim charged (not saying ""Death!"- that comes later) but breaking into singing.

Sorry, I overlooked the Silmarillion, but I have the same taste there:
6. Fingolfin fighting Morgoth 7. Beren and Luthien in Morgoth's throne room 8. The killing of the Two Trees, and the creation of the Sun and Moon 9. Nirnaeth Arnoediad: even though it's a disaster, there's a lot of heroism I like |
