The Hobbit is a fun book full of adventures. However, it is also very hard to relate to. This book is all fantasy, there is not a lot of real life situations. I believe that if I could have related to this book more easily, then I would have also enjoyed it more. After all, if I can relate to anything, whether it be books, movies, or other people, it creates a bond and the movie, book, or friendship is much more enjoyable to be involved with.
The overall theme of the book, though, is relatable to everybody's lives. The Hobbit follows the Hero's Journey, a timeline of events that every book and movie that have heroes in them follow. Most people also loosely follow this journey in their lifetimes. I am like most people and, so far, have seemed to follow the Hero's Journey just like Bilbo Baggins.
