The Silmarillion is somewhat tough to read but worth it if you want the full background to TLotR.
I've read The Silmarillion and I hated it. I read it from cover to cover and found it horribly dull and hideously hard to read. I did take a gander at Children of Hurin and decided it wasn't worth my time and effort.
