I think it was interesting how it was talking about getting different things from the same book at different points in your life.
That's certainly how it went for me with the Silmarillion. I read it at 16 just after I had come off of reading Lord of the Rings and it was extremely boring. I read it again at 30 and I found it to be quite interesting. The book hadn't changed, but I had.

The dialog, characters, and building tension was fantastic. I almost felt like I could smell the beach and the boats.
