Table of contentsThe settingPlotRecommendationI chose the book “The Hobbit” because the title really inspired me. On the back of the book it was written that it was about a dragon and a hobbit named Bilbo Balings who were going to embark on a very dangerous plot. So I started reading it and it was a lot of fun!

Some varieties live peacefully with each other, but there are also wars. The three main characters are: Bilbo Balings: at the beginning he fears almost everything. He doesn't dare to do much and he's a big coward, but at the end of this story he has transformed into a strong and courageous man who fights for his friends. Gandalf: (a wizard) is a calm and intelligent person. While there doesn't seem to be a way out (because they're trapped), he always seems to know what to do and how to get out. Thorin Oakenshield: the leader of the dwarves who comes from the mountain Erebor, never afraid, truculent, hates the elves, a born leader and strong in spirit. PlotThe story began in a place called the Shire. Bilbo Balings is living peacefully in his house when suddenly the wizard Gandalf comes to look for him. Gandalf persuades Bilbo to join the 13 dwarves on their journey to return to the lonely mountain captured by the dragon Smaug. On the road, the dwarves are captured by goblins. When Bilbo loses the group and falls into a cave, he encounters a creature named Gollum. Gollum has a ring that can make him invisible. During their journey, they meet many people (bad and good), but nothing will stop the dwarves from returning to the mountain and killing the dragon. They succeed in killing the dragon Smaug. This means that the dwarves have their treasure (lots of money) again. Thorin is addicted to his money and he doesn't want to lose it. Meanwhile, a very big war is going on with the goblins. Everyone fights against them, even the elves. Thorin realizes that he was wrong and he fights with Azog, the Destroyer, he wins and kills him, but he also dies. Keep in mind: this is just a sample.

This book was never boring. It interested me the whole time, because there were a lot of cliffhangers. For example, when they are captured by the giants, you want to know what happens next. Some parts were difficult to read because they contained difficult words. One of them was nervousness, I needed to check that. Overall, the book is really nice, with good explanations of the characters and the story. I would recommend it to everyone because this book is amazing. It's all action, drama, humor, love, happiness. I think the best part was when Bilbo Balings met Gollum in the mountain. I didn't know what was going to happen. It was really exciting to read this part.
