I always think that book four (the second part of this book, that's only about Frodo and Sam) is the weakest part of the trilogy, and while that may be true it is never as bad as I think it is. First, it's really short, just a little over 100 pages, and secondly: it has some really good parts. Faramir, for example, is a amazing when he shows up, plus anything concerning Gollum and fish is cute and funny. And then they enter Shelob's lair, which is another good part because shit happens and then we get to hear orcs interact with each and I actually like that a lot. It's cool to see that they are longing for a time after the war ends when things calm down. I can so buy that there are orc farmers somewhere off in a deep part of Mordor. And now, of course, we get to the best book of all three!! Return of the Kings. Returns are always the best, be it jedis or kings. Ah, The Two Towers. I think the movie really did it a disservice (it is by far the worst movie) because every time I start it I think I won't love it as much as FotR, but that's just not true. It is a very good book in its own right, especially since so little of it is actually the Battle of Helm's Deep. I also think, whenever I reach the second part, dealing with Frodo and Sam, that I've reached the worst part of the trilogy, and that might be true, but it's not BAD. I mean, for one, it introduces Faramir, and secondly, it has all these great parts about Gollum and fish. Everything from Sam whispering "fissh" into Gollum's ear to test if he's awake to Gollum dreaming about claiming the ring for his own so that he can have fish three times per day (is it ever more clear that he was a hobbit once? You can't really corrupt hobbits by telling them they will be powerful or mighty, but baiting them with their fave food? That might just do it ...) is hilarious and I always love reading it. And now we've reached the best part of the trilogy, aka Return of the King. I even love all the fivehundred endings that so many people dislike, and there's even more of them in the book. The Two Towers is deeper and even more exciting than The Fellowship. As I write this I’m nearly finished with The Return of the King and I’m planning to immediately restart the series. I’ve gained so much in the reading and I’m certain there’s so much more that I’ve missed. 2.5 Stars
That 'The Lord of the Rings' should appeal to readers of the most austere tastes suggests that they too now long for the old, forthright, virile kind of narrative... the author has had intimate access to an epic tradition stretching back and back and disappearing in the mists of Germanic history, so that his story has a kind of echoing depth behind it...

Things I enjoy more and more on every reread is Gollum though. He's adorable, in the most annoying and creepy way. I mean, his big dream is to eat fish every day!!! I know I mention this every time I review the book, but I always forget it and then I love it so much.
Anyway, I love it. I love this entire trilogy. Shocking!!! (
