I have finished this series I loved it so very much although it will never be in my eyes better than the movies though bits not in the movies were really interesting as well. I loved all of the characters so much by the end of the story the ones I loved most in this particular part of the story Merry and Pippin and Frodo and Sam and everyone else as well. For the kind of people the race of hobbits are these four were the bravest and some of the strongest characters of the whole series. I really loved the plot everything came together as it should have I loved everything about the series by the end. So overall I loved this series so very much.
