The Hobbit

Reading this was like coming home.

I am nicely surprised. And I know I shouldn't have been.
But I expected this book to be a simplistic children's story with not much substance (and I don't even know why I thought so).
It was so so much more! Yes, it is written for children and you can tell. But it can still give you joy and make you smile, whether you are 8 or a 108.
One more beautiful proof that Tolkien was made of magic. I am so thankful for his undying legacy!

So, if you haven't yet read The Hobbit, please do it. It will warm your heart.
