/lit/ - Literature

I finally finished reading Lord of the Rings for the first time.

I won't lie, bros. I felt my eyes water at the ending. I'm amazed it was never spoiled to me after all these years of not reading the books.

I know it's a series aimed at "the big kids" but, man...

Where do I go from here? Should I even read another epic fantasy series or is it all downhill from here?

What can I do to honor the memory and talent of Tolkien?
