ScoutTN Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I am rereading it for the many-th time and finding that I do notice new things amd enjoy it just as much, even now, 37 years after my first reading. (How vividly I remember that!) I have the songs Cd to listen to for the first time this time. Anyone else have a similar experience? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs. A Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I find it wonderful every time I read it. I especially enjoyed the first time I read it aloud. I noticed so much in reading the words that I'd missed by reading silently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imagine.more Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 I read it almost every fall, have for 10 years probably? :) I'm a dork, but it's a fantastic book! I'm currently 2/3 of the way through it right now....pregnancy slows me down reading and I've got 3-4 different books going at a time of course so that takes awhile.

Ellie Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I read it for the first time around 1971. I have read the covers off three sets of paperbacks. I finally decided to buy it in hard cover, then for my Nook. Many, many times I discovered something new. I don't remember if I still find new stuff or not, lol. I read through it again every couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Targhee Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I love having read the Silmarilian before reading it again - everything had deeper meaning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
