Not sure if it's what you have in mind, but I can vouch for the fact that this book with exhibits from the recent Tolkien exhibition is stunning. I got it as a birthday present. It's large and features endless beautiful, high quality images of Tolkien's drawings, papers and family photos. There are fascinating, but accessible, essays too.

Which books do you want to read? The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings? The one-volume edition of The Lord of the Rings is probably the best one to get for a Kindle, since carrying a big book around is not an issue. For The Hobbit, I'd go with the enhanced 75th Anniversary edition as it's the same price as the others and has some cool features.

As /u/pinner92 says, however, read The Hobbit first.

We’ve owned them. The bookends are decently heavy and look great.

The BBC production is, in my opinion, the best audio treatment of LOTR out there. It's a radio drama rather than the unabridged book, but the narrator takes most of Tolkien's most descriptive passages wholesale in between dialogue. It's 13 hours long, and I don't feel like anything was rushed or glossed over.

I've tried a couple of unabridged audiobooks but my memory of them is that they always come out very dry (having someone read a 2k+ page book like LOTR to you is a very different experience from reading it yourself) or they feel a little whimsical (the hobbits read as whiny gits and Gandalf as wacky old magician), which seems to be the common approach to fantasy before Peter Jackson's movie. By contrast, the BBC cast seems to fully grasp the gravity of the story Tolkien was telling unusually well for 1981.

Also, Ian Holm voices Frodo!

I don't know where you might find them digitally, but the box set is on Amazon for just shy of $50.

I know I am a bit late but try this: Tolkien's World from A to Z: The Complete Guide to Middle-Earth.

It is like a Tolkien dictionary. I used it to familiarize myself with Middle Earth. It's arranged alphabetically so you can look up character names, events etc.

Found it on Amazon. Seems a good price.

here it is

It was only released in Turkey, as well as a few other countries I think
