- How are you liking the book so far?
- Why do you think Tolkien chose to make The Hobbit a children’s book when Lord of the Rings was made for a more mature audience?
- Do you think The Hobbit has the same appeal as Lord of the Rings even though The Hobbit was written as a children’s book?
Feel free to ask your own questions in the discussion!
So I just finished The Hobbit, it definitely got better towards the end for me but throughout the book in general I was a little disappointed. I don’t think it was a bad story or anything because I found it to be entertaining, it just didn’t sweep me up into it’s world the way I thought it would since it’s all about their adventure/quest. Even though I wasn’t captivated, it definitely made me want to continue on to the Lord of the Rings sometime in the near future.
Wow you just zipped through this really fast! Sorry the discussion questions are lacking right now. Isis and I are trying to get through but life is just getting in the way. But in the meantime if you have any good questions to add to the discussion pages please let us know! 🙂
