I did give the leatherbound collection to a friend of my kids for his bday and he raves about them also. And my son started reading the first book, but I know it hasn't grabbed his attention yet because he hasn't disappeared for days as he usually does when engrossed in a book (oh the blessed quiet!)<br /><br />I did however Love the movie. But based on your review, I will probably continue putting off reading the books until I'm out of other reading material. =]<br /><br />♥SpotSpothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12761441168024967277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4038208200300862494.post-84360567685192250932009-11-11T17:02:23.194-06:002009-11-11T17:02:23.194-06:00I enjoyed them well enough but am not a full on Ad...I enjoyed them well enough but am not a full on Adams Cultist. The humor is a bit broad at times and there's enough social satire to keep it interesting but I just never became a huge fan of his work.Spenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15058731351393554627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4038208200300862494.post-76529390766363867242009-11-11T15:11:59.220-06:002009-11-11T15:11:59.220-06:00This book is awesome.

And it's one of the few books I'll actually recommend to people if I find out they haven't read it. <br /><br />Maybe check out Adam's other series, "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency" and it's follow up "The Long Dark Tea Time of the Soul". They've got more of that deadpan humor in them. I'll admit that the Hitchhiker's "Trilogy" frequently goes for broad humor.Genevieve Burgesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10579522602118671819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4038208200300862494.post-81593087317385770482009-11-11T14:17:54.844-06:002009-11-11T14:17:54.844-06:00yeah, those rake thingys that kept popping up and ...yeah, those rake thingys that kept popping up and smacking them in the face were funny. does this book have those? if not, go DIRECTLY TO HELL, douglas adams!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4038208200300862494.post-58046601668932929282009-11-11T13:34:07.879-06:002009-11-11T13:34:07.879-06:00I also failed to be blown away by this book. Mind...I also failed to be blown away by this book. Mind you, I liked it, probably laughed out loud a couple of times, but ultimately it didn't live up to the hype for me. <br /><br />Hardcore Douglas Adams fans may cringe at this, but I very much enjoyed the movie. No, I do not mean the movie was better than the book; I just went in to it with low expectations and was quite pleasantly surprised.meauxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14313629560625928694noreply@blogger.com
