The Fellowship of the Ring

When I first began reading this book, I got told by some friends that you should read Tolkien like poems. They have some truth to that. It's not a book meant to rush through; sit back and enjoy the journey with our favourite Fellowship.
It's obvious by the style of writing it's an older book, so if you're not into that, don't do it.
Nonetheless give it a chance. You will not find a book full of action, but full of a journey through treacherous land where danger now lurks.
