Author: Douglas Adams
Genre: Science fiction, Humor, classics
Rating: 3/5
Verdict: It's not you, It's me kind of a book. The satire and dry humor was a bit much for me but still liked it overall.
I must have heard the name of this book at least a few hundred times in my life so far. This was also my first sci-fi book and I must say I didn't quite enjoy it even though this is a cult/classic that people have always raved about. It is a hilarious story of the adventures of Arthur Dent a human on earth and Ford - an alien hitchhiker as they journey through galaxies. I didn't think the book was hilarious and the dry humor was very hard to understand in many places. The plot was ok but I just didn't get it in many places and there were far too many characters to keep track of.
I'm not sure what else to say of this book. I didn't have the patience to read it after a point and almost wanted to end it but I just powered through finishing it just to say I've read it. Thankfully it was a short book and I didn't hate it but I didn't love it either,
