Review of 'Die Rückkehr des Königs' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

I actually feel quite a bit accomplished that I managed to read through Lord of the Rings this year.

Even though the last book in itself is a 5 star read for me, I wouldn't say atm that LOTR is one of my favorite fantasy stories yet.
This is partly because it really drags and partly because I always let some time pass between books. In my opinion, you have to take this story in one piece. Some of the book endings just feel like the end of a chapter.

There will be a time when I read the 3 books back to back and possibly my opinion will change then.

PS: Frodo x Sam best romance I read this year
