Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy September 20, 2008
Life the Universe and everything it is. This book will change your life for ever on many levels. Well written social comedy. It's too bad Douglas Adams is no longer on this earth, truly one of the great writers of all time.
great book, a must read for fans of the movie. August 31, 2008
i really enjoyed the movie, and had always wanted to read the book, so i finally purchased a copy to read.of course many think you should read the book before seeing the movie version, but i become interested in the book until i'd seen the movie. i'm glad i finally purchased one, much more info, and behind the scenes. i'm still reading it, but am very impressed soo far. i'd recommend this book to anyone.lots of fun.
How to be happyh June 16, 2008
This book is the ultimate litmus test as to whether the reader is ready to be happy and have joy in his life, or whether he wants to keep crying in his beer.
If this book does not have you falling down on the floor laughing, then chuck it in.
genius. end of story. May 26, 2008
I realize I'm probably one of the last people on the planet to discover this wonderful book, but I got to sing its praises, too. One of the best books I've read in a long time, and fitting as I am also suddenly into Doctor Who, which is quite similar. The Earth is destroyed one horrible Thursday in order to build a hyperspatial express route, and Arthur Dent and his friend Ford (who was stranded on Earth for fifteen years) start hitchhiking around the galaxy. Never have I read a book so clever and imaginative (dealing with the meaning of life pondered by mice, nuclear bombs turning into sperm whales, depressed robots and hyper-friendly computers) with such a clever and hilarious style (pokes great fun at our little species). Grade: A+
Great May 15, 2008
Our friend here is simply the best humorist printed on paper during the second half of the twentieth century.
Mark Twain and Bierce Ambroce should see him as a counterpart in heaven (or hell) I recommend this book to any reader, even if that English is not their native language, like me.
