HDU spoil a book that's 75 years old!
smilla840 is unhappy because a Hobbit fanfic didn't warn for spoilers. Cue laughter.

No, you're DEFINITELY not alone. Tolkien, Lewis, and Dickens are all authors I cannot stand because they take too damn long to get to the point. Like I pride myself on being able to read quite a bit of stuff and I LOVE detail, but I just about threw myself off a cliff trying to wade through "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe." Then I felt bad for hating a book (it was the first book I was going UGH all the time), so I waded through the next one and finally gave up on the third one.

When I had to read Charles Dickens for my honors English class Sophomore year, I just about died. I couldn't. I ended up reading the Great Illustrated Classics version just to pass my tests and write my papers.

TL;DR: YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
