I literally can't stop crying over a book and I don't know why?

Yeah, okay I understand what you're trying to say now. I've just been re reading it and your right, the story itself is fantastic, and maybe Tolkien got caught up in creating the world itself rather than writing excellent prose like Hemingway. Some passages are long winded and descriptive which can be laborious if you're not drawn in, but I think he was hoping to create something so much bigger than anything that could be put into one book. It's a shame that many of his works and ideas about Middle Earth are incomplete or died along with himself.

(Edit: I'll definitely take a read of that article when I get the chance. I absolutely love literature and have taken an interest in writing. It's just a shame I only found out this passion after I left school/university. Still, learning is learning).

'really well-written' every author just turned in their graves (or, wherever they are).
Hunger Games is like Harry Potter, Twilight and Lord of the Rings in that it's generally accepted that the book isn't well written, it's popular for the story contained.
