Most Precious Gollum, now that some time has passed since you finished the books, do you have any further thoughts on them? Do you like them more or less now that the immediate excitement has worn off?
I do not know how I am just now seeing your response but maybe it's best as now much much more time has passed and let me say my excitement & love for the books & the story is greater today than it's ever been as I am constantly digging & piecing together things from the appendices especially after now that the Hobbit has been released as they are so helpful in putting together all the things about the Necromancer & other things. These books are just the greatest thing ever in my opinion.
1 thing awesome about the books is when I watch these movies things sometimes really stand out and makes me want to find more out about the characters. Just a few weeks ago did I become very intrigued about Denethor treating Faramir so badly. And I never knew until going back to the books that Faramir's mother died when he was only 5 & Denethor was left as a lonely bitter man......so this is just one nice gold nugget of many I have found & many more are sure to come. I could have never realized what a treasure chest of info it is & I plan on sifting through it many more times.
