I have read LotR 11 times (I'm currently reading again, so it will be 12 soon  ), the Hobbit 10 times, the Sil 8 times and The Unfinished Tales 5 times. I think I read The Aventures of Tom Bombadil something like 3 times and the Lays of Beleriand once.
And I never get tired of it! The more I read Tolkien, the better it becomes!  _________________

^who doesn't? especially if it's LotR you're reading? And I've lost count of how many times I've read it. 8)

How could we ever get enough? We read it countless time, but it feels like a new experience every time!  _________________

I have read the entire trilogy at least 20 times, but I am not sure exactly. It might be 30 .
