This seemed like a good place to stop, and it's been a journey! (SPOILERS) After Bilbo left, and Gandalf (who is still tied as my favorite character of all time) informs Frodo more of the ring, and insists he must leave. After some time, Frodo does eventually leave and travels east with Sam and Pippin, meeting Farmer Maggot, who played an interesting role, before settling down in Crickhollow.I love his writing style!

Would definitely recommend a reread! It feels quite a bit different reading it a second time, in a very good way. I'm still not a huge fan of the singing; it can be good, but it's more of time and place and the number of times it has happened so far that makes me dislike it. But I absolutely love his writing style; if you have a book with a map in it, you feel like you are literally following them through the whole journey, every step of the way, because of how descriptive he is! I haven't experienced that much and I love it!
