Yes...I found the LOTR books slightly boring because I willingly abandoned them to read The Silmarillion instead. And since then, I've never gone back to the LOTR books...

I appreciate your honesty, but my friend, we both know how this ends:

-----------------------
Joke aside, I find very interesting how you find Silmarillion more appealing then LOTR...
Not that I not agree (Silmarillion is also my favorite book of all times (but then again, it's not really comparable to LOTR.. they are just.. different things).
I very much appreciate LOTR because of it's focus on events of only one year (or several decades in big picture), and it's done, really really well, really really awesome..
I wish we have 3 books for focused event's of several decades in Valinor, and 3 books for Numenor, and for Beleriand, and for very creation of Arda... how that will be awesome man?

Anyway, because I fell in love immediately, after first pages for both LOTR, and Silmarilon... I wonder.. If something prevented me of reading LOTR, and I read only Sil, and I get back to LOTR, would I get similar feel as you?

Indeed, indeed....although the flames do very much appeal to me - more than they should, I think...

Well....who knows? To each their own.

They all say that..
After we "purify" them with flames, I don't think they find flames very appealing..
I hear all the time "I'll read.. I'll read LO....".. something like that they say... What is LO?... I am not really sure what is that all about, but I guess, it's some form of redemption, and that means, we are doing a good job.

You - 😶

Nay, why must it be so? Why must you do this?

Right, so in all realms I thus stand exiled. First from Valinor, and now in Middle-Earth I can find no place either? What sort of darkling fate is this?

Why did you get kicked out of Valinor?

Hey, I left with Fëanor and all the others (although I wasn't a Kinslayer), so....I guess....that made me fall under a very infamous Doom...

So you are a traitor as well, and an ally of murderers.

Traitor? Nay, speak not of such. I swore no Oath and slew no kin; and yet still did exile come upon me.

By traitor I meant that you abandoned thy reading of The Lord Of The Rings.

Perhaps so then. And I say that I will not return to it.

Hey, mind if I have these cinnamon rolls for myself? They look glowy and squishy and...oh, wait...it's Fëanor...
