I only got 100 pages into The Two Towers before I had to call it quits. One of the worst, most boring and convoluted

Or Unfinished Tales or any of the History of Middle-earth series.

No reason to ask. I’m sure less than 10% of people here that have read the LOTR

2x. Bombadil and the Ents sections were toughest to read.
