"Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell was Oh no, not again. Many people have speculated that if we knew exactly why the bowl of petunias has thought that we would know a lot more about the nature of the Universe than we do now."
??????Ahh Douglas Adams

Every time I thought, ‘oh, that‘s random!‘ It turned out not to be random at all. Everything linked up in an entirely unexpected way. There were times I got a little exasperated with the absurdity, but then I told myself to chill out and reminded myself that that is the beauty of this book. Of the 5 in the ‘trilogy‘ I liked ‘The Restaurant at the End of the Universe‘ and ‘Mostly Harmless‘ best.
More books I came across..
Now..
I've heard of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy..who hasn't?
But..
I know NOTHING about it. Shocking I know! 🤦🏻♂️
I'll get around to it at some point!!! 😂
Any fans of Hitchhiker's? Tell me how much you like it? 😬
Still one of my favourite quotes ever 😁
I've been wanting to reread the hitchhiker's Guide "trilogy" for awhile now. I've decided to instead listen to them at work. It is helping time go by much quicker.
I was really excited to see the first one was read by Stephen Fry. But it's the only one my library has. The rest of the series is read by Martin Freeman. I usually like Martin Freeman, but I liked Fry's reading of it much better. Freeman's isn't bad, just not as good imho.

My reading habits haven‘t really changed as I‘m still a voracious reader. What has changed is my TBR has grown exponentially (& it was rather large to start with) & I‘ve learned to do audiobooks. 😀
There is always an answer

#bookriot #day6 #duologiestrilogiesandmore I went with the and more. Some of my favorite covers. Even my cat was enamored!
My anxiety has been more under control the last couple days, so today @hyperhawk and I went to my favorite local for Independent Bookstore Day. I picked up a couple books for myself and this limited edition poster for my fiance's birthday. I wish you guys could zoom in on the picture... it's all planets and ships and stuff from famous science fiction books. He's going to love it! Now I just have to hide it until July... 😂
Great way to start a Saturday morning #bookagram #books #secondhandbooks #bathtime
"There's an infinite number of monkeys outside who want to talk to us about this script for Hamlet they've worked out"
So many examples of #absurdity in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, but this one made me laugh out loud the first time I came across it! I do need to read these books again! #quotsynov17
