After So Long And Thanks For All The Fish, Mostly Harmless was a really refreshing read. It was so much more enticing, and while I did feel that it was more structured and meaningful, so to speak, than the first couple of books, I still thoroughly enjoyed making my way through it. Say what you want about the ending, I still think it came together very cleverly. Smashing ending to a mostly smashing series; (even if we never see the return of Zaphod :( /)

Well... at least it finished up the story in a sort of sensible way. Don't ask me to describe the plot though. Will not read book #6 as it's by a different writer and it seems as if the story was meant to end here.
this book is hilarious. i read it while on a bike tour and laughed out loud in my tent every night.

I haven't been enjoying this series a ton, because it's just been a bunch of nonsense with no payoff for me. But then this book started exploring some really cool themes, like finding purpose, and where does one fits in the galaxy, and where is home, so I got excited, but then it just exploded. Which isn't the best way to deal with existential crisis, but alas.
I really enjoyed the last one again. It had a bit of story, good jokes and the end felt good, even though it left a lot of questions unanswered.
