I really enjoyed listening to The Hobbit on audible. Sadly reading it after having watched the films I was just a little disappointed. The films include everything from the original story but they add some great adventures as well that I was hoping to read about. I'm sure if I did things in the proper order (reading book first then watching the movies) I would have issued the book a 5 star rating. As I said I still greatly enjoyed listening to the book so I issued it a 4 star rating. 
 Also I gave the performance 3 out of 5 stars because it was difficult for me to understand his singing and there are A LOT of songs in The Hobbit!
