I'm reading 'The Hobbit' for the first time. Have never read LOTR either. A *gasp* goes up from the readers. I may read those next, but I was given a stack of books and there's a mystery in the pile just calling out to me. (forget the name & author - but it sounded good) I read such a variety of books, I can't pinpoint any one as my favorite. Just like to have a book in progress all the time. Stuff it in the purse and read if caught waiting in line.
