I just saw a clip from LOTR Two Towers and I never got into LOTR and now feel like I lack some culture not having read any of it. I also haven’t watched any of the movies. I tried watching The Hobbit (first movie) but I didn’t understand any of it. Maybe it’s not for me? I like sci fi but not sure about phantasy. Can you understand each book without reading them in order? How many books are there? Is it still a trilogy?

    I tried for years to get into it and just couldn’t but I really wanted to bc all my friends liked it - I recently finished the audiobook of the Hobbit (Andy serkis narration) and LOVED it - have now started the LOTR series on audiobook and I’m enjoying it. If you can get a good deal on audible I’d recommend that route :)
