Comment: Science Fiction is normaly not my go-to genre, but I like to be open minded and read books I would normaly never pick. And I'm glad I did, because "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" was worth reading. My problem with Sci-fi sometimes is that the writer bores you with explaining how certain things work. Adams doesn't bore you for one second. He combines the knowledge and wit to make it more interesting. And he's so convincing in it. Arthur and Marvin were my favorite characters in the book. Especially Arthur and his ways of dealing with the crisis. This book is so funny and wacky and very clever written. The good thing about this book is that I think especialy the people who would normaly never pick sci-fi books will love it. I will continue reading the rest of the books. And if you're a fan of dry British wit, you will like it as well.
