If seen the movies before I read the book since they came out in 2000-2004 (cinema and on dvd). However I read the book the first time in the summer of 2004 in dutch when I was 12. Then when I was 15 I read them for the first and sadly only time in english. However I am now rereading the books in dutch and reading the 12 part series the history of middle earth in english whenever I travel since they are hard to read around the home or in breaks, but perfect to read in the car, in the bus, in the train or on a plane. Sadly I usually use my bike to get around and reading while cycling is not a smart thing to do (complicated to lol). I am not really looking all that forward to the hobbit since they are so obviously milking it for all its worth. Peter Jackson said multiple times on the extras of LOTR that he didn't like the hobbit it was childish and that he would never make a movie of it and now the corrupted git is making three. When two is all the book needs. The fat chubby loving Peter Jackson is crying at what his now slim Hollywood corrupted self is doing.
