Query: My first try at fantasy with "The Hobbit"

I recently read the "Hobbit" so that I could then move onto "The Lord of the Rings" and then go see "The Lord of the Rings" movies.I have never read Fantasy books before so this was my first one, and I have to say that Fantasy takes some getting used to.While I enjoyed "The Hobbit", I did find some parts of it slow and uninteresting. I decided that Fantasy is probably not my favorite genre, however, the the book was still good and I would recommend it."The Hobbit" tells the story of Bilbo Baggins, a hobbit, along with Gandalf the wizard and a band of dwarves taking a journey to try and reclaim treasure taken from the dwarves ancestors by an evil dragon.For someone used to reading books grounded closer to reality, the plot of this book may sound kind of funny. But after you read about the experiances of this group of adventurers, you will have to agree it is quite a fun story.
