The Adventure
As I have continued reading The Hobbit I have come to enjoy it more. One of the things I noticed is how Tolkien writes in such descriptive language. I really enjoyed the scenes where Bilbo and the dwarves are in the dark forest because the way he decribes it really makes it sound utterly horrible! Also it is very evident that the lack of food is a serious issue for the group. Many times throughtout their journey Tolkien talks of the maddening hunger they are experiencing. It almost makes me hungry just reading it! I am not quite to the end of the book yet, but I am still rooting for Bilbo and the dwarves to come out victorious!
