I'm very stubborn and hardly ever give up on a book once I've started it, but I couldn't make it through "The Broken Crown" by Michelle West!. It was the first of a 3 book series (each of which was 700+ pages!) and I made it to page 585 before I gave up!. I still have it, and hope that someday II will pick it up and try finishing it!. But it'll be a long, long time before that happens!!

But, I LOVE "The Hobbit" and the LOTR books!.!.!.!.!.!.read them many times!Www@QuestionHome@Com
