By far one of the most original and happily imaginative books
for children that are out there. This is a far more light-hearted tale than the Lord of the
Rings and introduces to the world the unforgettable Bilbo, Gandalf and
Gollum. The Hobbit is a book that can be enjoyed by children and
adults alike and authors from J.K. Rowling to David Gemmell class it
as an inspiration upon their own work. Though, I guess this
is almost always exactly the same in all of Tolkien’s work. The Hobbit is one
of the longest books I have ever read, because though it is relatively not that
long it feels very long and over drawn just because of the writing style. When
reading this book it can feel difficult because of all of the different aspects
and adventures in it. Definitely not the best book I have ever read and has
many flaws and issues but is still a good piece of well structured writing and
does deserve some credit at least. Though I do enjoy all of the different adventures
that go throughout the novel and how each chapter is kind of separate but still
come together in the end. For example, at the beginning it was quite humorous
in a way that today’s readers might find funny, rather than being
old-fashioned.
