I've only read the first 2 (well, I read Two Towers up to the equivelant end of the movie), because I know otherwise the movies will dissapoint me. I'll read the rest of Two Towers and then Return Of The King once I've seen the movie (in a little over 4 weeks time).

I'd recommend waiting until you've seen all 3 movies, and then reading all 3 books.


I have also been meaning to read The Hobbit, but not been too bothered (not enough to go to the library for it, lol)
