"Extremely Funny . . .Inspired Lunacy . . . [and] over much soon." -The Washington Post Book World"[A] Whimsical Odyssey . . . Characters frolic through the galaxy with infectious joy." -Publishers Weekly.
For my independent reading I chose to read Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy because it has inspired a major motion picture which is extremely prestigious. I have also read several reviews and found that readers are filled with laughter. I expect this book to be hilarious and a good topic for discussion. I am enthusiastic about reading it because it might be the first book I have read since nearly a year! The author Douglas Adams English was an author, comic radio dramatist, and musician. He died in 2001 of a heart attack. Known as a fan of technology, he was the second person to buy a Mac in the UK. This book will most likely take me two weeks to read if I follow my 100 pages a week plan.

In my opinion, I think "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" is excellent read. You wont have the chance to eat or sleep because of it. Might I also add that this was a very well written blog. Good job Ashikul! You will surely become an overachieving scholar.
Tell me about it, it has been a while since I have had time to read a book as well.
A lot of people who I knew told em that "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" is a fantastic book to read, especially when you are in need of some good laugh.
Yet, still I am not convince what makes this book so special or worth reading, so we're gonna have to talk about this in person. =]lol

This independent reading project is great because I am actually getting a chance to read during the school year. I read the novel last year, but didn't see the movie. The book was funny indeed. Superb job w/ your blog!
I didn't see the movie or read the book but I did hear that it was very good by teachers and classmates. You writing style is very good and shows good education. You also showed good vocabulary.

i never heard or read this book. but now that many people are saying that it's worth reading i think i should try. i also saw a Korean version of this book so i guess it's popular around the world.
The book seems very exciting once you read the title and the cover.. But i never tried picking it up. But since you recommend it, i'll read it once i have the time and finish my book!
I am also reading this book and i would love to know what you think about it. I feel that it was quite ironic as the Protagonist's house was going to be demolished for a super highway just as the earth had the same fate.
I thinkm that The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy is anawsome book. I haven't read it yet , but if it's anything liek the book than it should be hilarious. I saw the movie and my favorite part in it was whenever they pushed da button something weird always happens. Does that happen n the book too?
I agree with you. The book must be good since it was in the movie theaters. Nice use of vocabulary. The blog was very well written and it was fun to read. Good job Ashikul.
Ashikul is cool lols. I like ur blog because it makes the "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" sound like so much fun. I might consider reading this book becuase it seems to be so funny from what i read from your blog.
I guess by now you're probably done with the book. But whatever, I'll still comment you. I do feel the same way after i haven't read for a while, i get real high expectations. But then i realize it's just reading, so, it passes by fast.
This was a great book highly would recommend this. Kinda confusing.
ashikul's blogs r very informative. I loved the about lotr. i wish i can be just him! you guys r lucky to noe this straight up G. and im looking forward for that rick ross autobiography blog.
