REVIEW ON "THE HOBBIT" by J.R.R. TolkienAs reviewed by Ross RichardWithin the first minutes reading this book, I knew it was going to be one of the best books I have ever read! I think this was a great story. I had to share how I felt about it with all of you. I feel that people who like to read fantasy, or about adventures, would enjoy this book (I recommend reading the back cover before buying the book). My personal reason I enjoyed this book is because it was about an adventure, I love to read about adventures. The story takes place in Middle Earth, in an area called "The Shire." The main characters are Bilbo Baggins, Gandalf, and Thorin Oakenshield. The main idea of this story is about Thorin Oakenshield, a group of dwarves, Bilbo (a hobbit), and Gandalf (a wizard) achieving a quest. The quest is about the group trying to slay a dragon that took Thorin's treasure, and the dangers they encountered.One of the most exciting parts (my opinion) is when Bilbo has a dream about getting kidnapped by goblins and when he wakes up it happens! My favorite part about this book is when Bilbo and the dwarves get kidnapped by goblins and they lose Gandalf! (Gandalf, the wizard, has been protecting and guiding the troop to the destination point, you have to read it to find out). The reason I like this part is because it is very exciting and suspenseful, I couldn't wait to find out what happened.This book was written by J.R.R Tolkien. He also wrote many other books. The best known were the "Lord of the Rings series." There are the sequels of what Bilbo's nephew and a group with him accomplish in Middle Earth. I think if you don't like stories that are fiction, to not buy this book, unless your teacher makes you read during the summer!

I am looking forward to the movie but nothing really compares to a book. This book should be a must read for everyone. My ten year old daughter is reading it also.

The Hobbit
I am an avid reader and devour books at an alarming rate. This book sucked me in from the moment I started to read it.
The Hobbit
This book is a great standalone read. I highly recommend reading this prior to the trilogy. Tolkien's first could be the best!
