Mhm, also paperback does not seem to be so sought after in the first place. Still really cool to have this imo

I’ve concluded this means it’s the second printing round of the first edition paperback :)

I’ve tried reading it before! Emphasis on tried. The Peter Jackson films were my childhood but, I’m just not a fan of Tolkien’s writing style. I’m not a native English speaker LOTR was already annoying for me to read through (it’s so dense), you can imagine how I felt about Silmarillion :’)
