We all loved reading The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. It was a
refreshing and light read that went quickly. For our book club we did notice
our discussion was slightly distracted because there wasn’t too much to
discuss. If I were to do this book over again I would have us read the first
book (which is only 150 pages) and the following book. That way we have more to
discuss. However, this was a wonderful read and made as all want to continue
the series to find out what happens next. It is easy to see why this book has
been popular for such a long time and continues to be so.
What
we liked:
-
The humor and sarcasm in the book had us
laughing.
-
The randomness and absurdity of the
story kept us turning the pages.
-
There were some great lines that stuck
in our memory and made for hilarious recollection moments.
-
It was very lighthearted and enjoyable.
-
It felt like a more grownup read
compared to Ender’s Game.
-
The storyline was so intriguing all of
us want to read the next four books in the series.
What
we didn’t like:
We
had absolutely no complaints!
