Tolkien Review

Today I will be reviewing Tolkien by the Hobbit. I give a 6.9/10. Personally, I do not like the fantasy genre as a whole and much prefer other fiction genres. The book the hobbit does not vary much in regards to tropes used in standard fantasy. It tells an interesting story filled with action and mystical creatures but it has a rather unfulfilling ending. This is because even though Bilbo, the main character (btw if you don't know who Bilbo is why tf are you even here), and his squad end up gaining back the dragon's treasure, defeating the goblins in an epic battle, and overcoming many other seemingly impossible tasks, Bilbo ends up returning home and instead of being treated like a hero for his accomplishments, he is disregarded as strange.
