Name a book or author that you truly wanted to love but left you disappointed. (And, of course, explain why.)
I've never been a big fan of the Lord of the Rings books by Tolkien. The movies, yes. Books, hell no.
I tried reading The Hobbit, but I got epically bored after a few pages in Chapter 1. Perhaps I found Tolkien's wavelength totally different from mine, or I'm just probably stupid. I dunno...the way he described Middle Earth was just too detailed that I found my brain sleeping half the time I was reading.
I guess the Tolkien brand of fantasy just isn't my kind of fantasy.
