the only way i finally got sort of a handle on that one was by actually making an outline on several pages of legal pad… and now that i think about it, it was absolutely worth it…
This is something I noticed people have been saying, but I never had such problem. I think it might be because Ive had read a Czech translation, so it might have been more palatable than the original Tolkiens English, which can get rather verbose.

World’s fanciest, most fantastical infodump. 5 new characters, 4 new places, and 3 new events every page, as well as further development of many other characters, places and events from earlier pages, with new references and connections and associations for you to keep track of. Fun.

What can I say, Bilbo Baggins is an inspiration to us all
Sneaksy little thief!
