The books are incredibly interesting, but I can't stand Tolkein's writing style. The books are all history and plot, with pretty poor character development and pacing.

It's an interesting read, but it's ridiculously dry. I've tried to reread it a few times (in fact, I started trying again a few days ago), but I haven't made it through again. It's basically a history textbook for Middle-Earth and it reads like one, not like a novel.
