*sigh*
I have read FotR 23 times since May 2001.

However, I do not have all the poems memorized yet. Only the smaller ones.

I have also read the Silmarillion around 10 times, and the Unfinished Tales around 5 times. I'm on my 23rd time through TTT, and then I'm moving on to RotK for the 23rd time.

I started reading the Hobbit at age 6 and must now start to know this one out of my head... Lord of the Rings i just re-read together with the Reader's Companion by Wayne Hammond and Christina Scull. How many time i read the book i cannot recall. In 1996 i stopped counting at 35 times.
the Silmarillion must be around 22 times, yet never counted...

i'm always reading something. Today i was reading in the silmarillion (now at the downfall of the Noldor).

Hmm. Forme, that's a tough question. My parents used to read it to me as a bed-time story from the ageof five, and then when I was old enough, I began reading it for myself. And as I am now nearly 21, I'm afraid I can only estimate....but I caan assure you it is over 80 times. I had to buy a new book a few years back - my old one was so dogeared, I'd read it so much!! That actually goes for the entire three books, not just FOTR.

I think I've read it about three times. Not so sure. I dip into it from time to time. Honestly, I don't just devour the Lord of the Rings, and read it like a million times. It's a big book, and not a 'casual' read. I've read the Hobbit a lot more since it's shorter. The Sil just once.
