Followed Arthur and the Gang in the final installment. Arthur gains a daughter, a job in a sandwich shop and twice the dose of Trillion. It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed listening to the BBC dramatization. It made it doubly fun. 

Don't think this was really all necessary to the series, but what are you going to do?

Like most of this series, this ended and changed abruptly. But I love all the callbacks non sequiturs and oddities, while still being able to somehow follow a plot.

Again with the awesome randomness.
fast-paced

I enjoyed practically nothing expect a few good scenes and lines in this bitter book and I’m just sad I read it now and I wish I hadn’t so I think I’m just gonna deny this book’s existence for maybe the rest of my life

If anyone's wondering what's it like to read a book if you have adhd, read this book. And now imagine reading this book if you actually have adhd. You'll be reading a sentence and suddenly you'll realize that you have no idea what you're reading and have to go back a few sentences to make sense of it. This is perfectly normal if you have adhd. But with this book, sometimes the sentences forgot what they're saying mid sentence and have to go back a few sentences to make sense of themselves again. You don't know what i'm talking about? Yeah ne neither.

Do i remember anything from this series? Not much, no.
Do i understand any of the things i remember? Absolutely not.
Did i immensely enjoy reading the series anyway? 100% yes. There were sentences that were so stupidly amazing that i wanted to write them on my walls.
So i remember any of these sentences? Nope.
Would i recommend this series? Absolutely. Go read it. It'll give you a headache and you will thank it for it.

a little calm for Adams but an interesting end to a wonderful trilogy (of 5)
