ranger51's book review was featured in The Hobbit.
J.R.R. Tolkien is FOR SURE one of my favorite authors (apart of John Flanagan, the author of my favorite series Ranger's Apprentice). The Hobbit was different than the Lord of the Rings to me (but I also read the LOTR series when I was 7 vs. The Hobbit for the first time when I was 9). There were a lot less details than in the Lord of the Rings (where I find the little un-important things sometimes just going on and on and on until I'm tired and want to get to the main point... although I still love those books...). This was one of those books where you (finally) read the actual thing BEFORE you watch the movies... (Yeah, I know... that never seems to happen, does it?!) So I found this very different (and WAY better) than the movies in a lot of ways. I really enjoyed it all coming from Bilbo's perspective and I find it more enjoyable than from Frodo's or the others in LOTR. It had more action, it seemed like, although I wish the book was a little bit longer because I just didn't want it to end!! Whenever I'm bored or don't know what to read, my go-to place is the Hobbit. I've probably read this book 20 times in the last 5 years and I'm still going to read it another 10 before 2018 is over. I just LOVE this series!! (and I love the elves, too!)About 6 years agoranger51 added a book review.

AMAZING!! I'm reading it now, and now that I'm over halfway through it's just left me hanging!! It's very different than book 8, which I got kind of lost in because it wasn't as exciting or hooking as the other books in this INCREDIBLE series. It still emphasizes the Ranger's skill in camouflage and the art of unseen movement - it shows that they're not perfect archers and won't always make every shot, which I thought was good because sometimes the Rangers are so amazing that they seem unrealistic. I'm learning new skills in the woods and outdoors and even just silent movement every time I read the books and this time I'm sure I have almost the most (besides for the first book, since it's Will's first year of training). It's super suspenseful when these assassins set up to ambush the two Rangers and the young Warrior (Will, Halt, and Horace) and when the results are not as they expected, the relationship between Will, his former apprentice, and Halt his mentor, really tugged on my heartstrings. Even the friendship between Horace and Halt was very moving. It makes me have to keep reading until the end to find out what happens!! It's so cool!! I really love this books and would recommend them to anyone... no, everyone! Ranger's Apprentice is DEFINITELY my favorite series and will hopefully hold the lasting record of that until I die. LOL.About 6 years agoranger51's book review was featured in The Burning Bridge (Ranger's Apprentice, Book 2).
Amazing book! This has become my favorite series of all time! (I read the first 8 books in the summer of 2017 and I LOVED them!!) Rangers are SO cool - literally, my dream job!! Book 1, 2, and 7 are my favorites so far in the series (I still haven't finished) but I really REALLY love them!* Summary: Morgarath, Lord of the Mountains of Rain and Night, formerly exiled from the Kingdom of Araluen, is ready to make his move. After Ranger Halt and his apprentice Will have defeated the Kalkara, Morgarath has nothing left than to bring his army of Wargals down from the mountains. But... How will they get across? A bridge, of course. As the army builds a bridge across the pass, from mountains to the valley, it is now Will's mission to destroy the bridge. With Halt, Horace, and a mysterious girl Evanlyn, Will must destroy the bridge to stop the Wargal army from crossing it. Can he? And can he do it alone? * This book ends in a such a surprising way I almost screamed and cried and laughed all at once. As soon as I read the last word I rushed to my bedroom and grabbed the third book and I did not put down that series until I was till Book 5...(where I took a 10 second break)... and now I'm still reading it!! I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone!!About 6 years agoranger51 added a book review.

J.R.R Tolkien, tied with John Flanagan for my favorite author, writes a magnificent piece in 'The Lord of the Rings'. It is so incredible it has become a classic that any middle schooler must read. I read this book when I was 7 years old and it has still held 2nd Place, now as an 8th Grader. I would recommend this series to ANYONE who likes adventure, action, fantasy, magic, powers, elves, dragons, war, violence, mystery, suspense, and so much more!! His novels are just packed with excitement and everyone should read them!! :) I have to say, he seriously must have done a lot of planning before he started writing for this series, because he seems to know the favorite colors of Bilbo Baggin's GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT GREAT Uncle's grandparents. (By means to say, he writes in a lot of detail that I sometimes get bored over and wish he would get to the main point, but it just adds to how AMAZING this trilogy is!!) I could research my whole life and not know everything about the Lord of the Rings because man... he knows every little detail about his world and other world's he created!! Definitely, read this series... and... GO LEGOLAS!!About 6 years agoranger51 added a book review.
