Beautifully written fantasy writing.
I feel like I’m reading straight from Bilbo’s book himself. All the songs and phrasings are so fitting and critical to setting this tale. The narrator is 10/10 amazing. All of his voice changes and how he can make the elves sound so sing song and the dwarfs gruff and guttural is nothing short of astounding.

My only qualms is that it did feel like a very slow progression.
