While reading the Hobbit, I noticed that it was much, much better aloud. I've gone through many of my favorite books. Shakespeare and Milton are absolutely fabulous to the ear, and even more fun off your own tongue. I have to take a brief pause at each line because of a long ago broken nose. It's nice to hear that I'm not the only one to notice how well that works for the Bard.
