Lucky, right? Maybe it’s all part of a greater plan… I came across this book as I was reading the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Lord of the Rings was one of my favorite series when I was in middle school, And the Hobbit keeps the energy of childhood imagination turned into a young adult series, the same energy from the lord of the rings. This book made me almost relive some of my childhood, from my dad and I reading Lord of The Rings together in 5th grade, to Watching the Hobbit movie on the plane to Italy. The Hobbit has a great, absorbing story with twists and turns that I got lost in a I read. It is truly a wonderful book and a classic that everyone should read. -MW, grade 10 CATEGORIES: Fantasy, Literary classic, Quest, Young Adult.
