Does anyone esle feel like this or am I the only one? :(

I felt the same way. Perhaps because the plot line in that book is a little more complicated. Make that alot. :)

For me it is finding time to read it. Some times it is a little hard to read let alond "keep up" with ever event and to memorize it.

To me I thought that LOTR was actually easy to get my head round. Esspecially compared to The Silmarillon. That nearly made me explode :explode:

Yea, it's easy to get your head around, but TTT wasn't as interesting to read and therefore dragged more than the other 2. In my opinion anyway.

As for the Sil, I think you have to be picky about which bits you read. There's so much information to take in. I think reading it in stages and not all as one book makes it easier. :)

Yeah, it is a little more difficult; except the first part, I really thought that was funny, with Aragorn and Legolas and Gimli debating a lot, and showing their feelings a little more even though they were always friendly to each other. You learn a lot about Legolas and his talents, too.

Was the second part the more Frodo-centric part?
Because (if it was) I second what you said, Telcontar. The second half seemed a longer read.

Overall though, I didn't find it any harder than RotK. FotR always seems easiest of the three. :) Tis my favourite to read, although I do like the first few chapters of TTT.
