Found them really boring
Almost any classic is more enjoyable IMO — Moby Dick, War and Peace, Jane Austen, whatever.

Tried once, couldn't do it. Too dry and boring for my tastes. Glad other people got through them.

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

Just looked up the leather bound special edition I bought 40 years ago for $200

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

Yeah the Bombadil part was rough. Not looking forward to Treebeard either.
