I read it as a 10th grader in high school. I don't think I am HG or PG but I do think of that book as a high school book...I don't really think I could have read it at 10, too much to slog through (I really loved it but it did take effort to read it and generally reading for me is effortless).

I was given a copy as a fifth grader, and I wore it out, reading and re-reading it countless times, partially because good reading material was hard for me to come by at that time. So imagine my hilarity when The Hobbitt was assigned reading in my 9th grade AP English class.

Yep, it's definitely a high school book.
