Mostly Harmless | Douglas Adams

This brings to an end the "The trilogy of five" Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It recovers some of the freshness that had lost with the last book, really enjoyed it, very good wrap up of the series. I'll definitely revisit it in the years to come, a good way to get some light, fun-chaotic reading. Might look for the BBC audios, if anyone knows where to find them!

Jas16 Great job! 2mo
catsuit_mango I know there is a vinyle of thé complete BBC audio, and i found the audio files but i can't remember where. 2mo
catsuit_mango You might also like the BBC adaptation from the 80s. The movie is nice but mostly fan service in comparison. 2mo

nanuska_153 @Jas16 thanks! I intend to tackle this month both Middlemarch and Villette so wish me luck 🤞🏻 2mo
nanuska_153 @catsuit_mango thanks so much for that, I watched the movie but didn't know there was a series. Will see if I find the vinyl it would make a nice addition to my collection ❤️ 2mo
Jas16 I loved Middlemarch! 🍀🍀 2mo

Doctor Who: The Pirate Planet | Douglas Adams, James Goss

This book is so much Douglas Adams! James Goss did an awesome job making a book out of different text fragments and documents. I had so much fun with this and loved how the characters evolved. And yes, this book made me laugh, just as every book by Douglas Adams does. Very well done, Mr. Goss!

My #BookSpin is The Pirate Planet and can't wait to read a Doctor Who book again. #DoubleSpin is a book I've wanted to read since it was published last autumn. Suisse Miniature by X Schneeberger. Also, I'm trying to get a #BookSpinBingo again - Fingers crossed!

@TheAromaOfBooks

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! Looks fantastic!! 4mo
Jari-chan @TheAromaofBooks Thank you ❤️ 4mo

Bk8 of my recent #BookMail is this larger than I was expecting “coffee table book” of journals, tv plays & drawings of the incomparable Douglas Adams, satirist & author of Hitchhikers GuideTo the Galaxy & it‘s resultant series of books & tv shows. With characters like Arthur Dent, Ford Prefect, Zaphod Beeblebrox & Marvin the Paranoid Android, he became the king of silly SciFi. Some of my favourite books of all time. Foreword by Stephen Fry.

catsuit_mango That sourds wonderful 8mo

Sadly, Salmon Of Doubt was never completed 😢 It would've made such an awesome book. Dirk Gently is such a cool character and I would've loved to read what Douglas Adams would've made out of this idea (where's the other half of the cat? 🤔) The book includes different by and about DA. Done didn't interest me that much, but many were hilarious. Just DA being DA.

SamAnne Hmmm I need check this out! 8mo
Jari-chan @SamAnne If you like Douglas Adams I can recommend it. It's a good collection, but mostly targeted at fans of the author. 8mo
SamAnne @Jari-chan hah! Well,I‘m obsessed with salmon! 8mo
Jari-chan @SamAnne Haha 😁 well, there's not a lot of actual salmon in the book, though😅 8mo
Twainy 😆♥️ 8mo

After thinking we had a gas leak only to find out it's probably a dead animal in our crawl space, I need something fun to distract me from all of the reality this Monday has caused. #SciFiSummer
