That was many years ago. Maybe as an adult it'll go better?

The Silmarillion is one of those books I think I should read because I enjoy The Lord of the Rings trilogy so much. I've tried to read it a couple of times, and quit not long after starting. I think I'll try reading it again this year, now that I've had more exposure to literary epics.
