Van de zomer herlas ik [b:The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy|53654093|The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, #1)|Douglas Adams|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1590830485l/53654093.SY75.jpg|3078186], het eerste deel in de gelijknamige serie van science-fictionschrijver Douglas Adams (1952-2001). Ik had zoveel plezier in de avonturen van Arthur Dent, Ford Prefect, Trillian en Zaphod Beeblebrox, dat ik het vijf sterren gaf en me verheugde op het tweede deel, The restaurant at the end of the universe (1980).

I did not like this one as much as I did the first.

It's been many years since I originally read the series. I got about halfway through and started wondering when he was going to get on with it. I still chuckled out loud at some of the jokes, but this one didn't have the life of the original HG2G.
