Definitely not the strongest story in the Hitchhikers series.

From having your planet destroyed and being stuck millions of years in the past, to saving the universe twice in one day. That Arthur Dent is a real hero!

This was really fun. For the first half, my feelings were similar to those I had during the second book. I enjoyed it, but something felt missing. But the final third of the book really won me over. It was hilarious, a lot of the things that'd been mentioned throughout the book came together, and I had a blast. I definitely liked this book better than the second (but not as much as the first) and my lower expectations might have played a part in that.
Overall, I really liked this book and I think I'll do a longer review when I reread it because, yes, I definitely want to do that. Though I might go for the audiobook again because Martin Freeman does such a good job. Highly recommend listening to the audio.

I absolutely loved this, but since I read the first two books in German instead of English, I got extremely confused around certain words, place names, and characters that were differently translated in German. So I will be returning to this, but either as a German audiobook or a German written version!

It's still excellent and hilarious and absolutely worth reading, I just do not love it as much as the first two in the series.
