Hello! I am interested in getting a new reading set for LotR and Hobbit. My current set is shown in the initial welcome post of this community and I'm hesitant to read them again since they are fragile. What do you all suggest and why?

Looks like a great set! I'm boring & read on an ereader.

Can’t fault you for that. They reminded me I also have the digital editions and will probably just read those.

It’s not ergonomic at all, but I’m reading right now a version that is all three books as one. I really enjoy seeing how far through the entire journey I am.

Neat. Do you mind sharing a pic or a link to the edition?

I forgot to mention there are also some of Tolkien’s illustrations throughout.

Wow! That edition looks great. Seems like a really nice one that isn't too expensive. Thanks!
