This whole series is just golden. I loved Adams' writing style. The way he discusses and presents humanity in this wacky space adventure is just so well done. I've reread this story so many times. It just never gets old.

More like a high 3.5. Like the others this was fun and having another woman in it was nice. I liked the exploration of more relationships and the themes of being lost. I am mad about Fenchurch not being in the book at all after I got attached to her and Arthur. The way things connected at the end was so cool. This felt like an addition rather than the end of the series but that’s on theme.
The end of this series has really grown on me over the years.

Après plusieurs années à se perdre dans la Galaxie, Arthur Dent s’installe sur Lamuella, où il devient le Faiseur de Sandwich. Ses projets de vie (enfin) paisibles se retrouvent stoppés à l’arrivée de sa fille, la prophétie de sa mort planant toujours au-dessus de sa tête.
Enfin, presque 2 ans après, je termine la trilogie en cinq livres qu’est H2G2. Est-ce que c’est le meilleur de la saga ? Non. C’est certainement son moins bon : moins drôle, plus lourd, avec une fin un peu abrupte quoique bien amenée. Mais, ça reste du H2G2, le côté SF de Discworld : fun, coloré, absurde, délicieusement anglais. Donc, du très bon, même pour le moins bon.

My husband is on goodreads and he brought my extreme lack of reading. This book took me almost a month to read - and the reason is that I just haven’t been reading. You see, at the beginning of this month, I received some devastating news. I couldn’t sleep and was an emotional wreck, so instead of reading, which had always been my drug of choice in the past, I instead read funny pinned tumbler posts on Pinterest. They made me laugh, and hence my sanity was preserved.
The other reason it probably took me so long to read this book was because it just wasn’t that interesting. It was better than the last one, at least Arthur was someone I recognized, but I still just blaa. Things got better once Random showed up.
Oh, and one more thing - I need to put sandwich making stuff on the next pick up grocery order (it's COVID-19 if anyone reading this from the future is paying attention to the date). Man do you start craving one reading this!
One more book in the series.
