I thought the story of the book is very good, though the way it's set is not what I could call "Lovely". I had to read this book for school, but I regret the fact that I've chosen this one. Every time I tried to finish the book, or just read further, I just rejected to open it. It's so depressing to read, and it's not what you can call exciting.

Though I understand that other people could like it. There is even a director (Peter Jackson himself) who is planning to make a movie out of this story, let's just hope it'd be better than the book. Though I'm quite curious about how the movie will become.
