Kyle finishes: this thing.


Whatson
This omnibus includes the "first" four books and a short story. With a little bit of googling, there are "two" more books: the fifth Adams wrote and supposedly didn't like, and the sixth one was written by someone who's Adams' widow approved of l.

Whatson
I'm going to stop at the end of the fourth book, So Long And Thanks for All The Fish.

Whatson
I won't lie, I'm nowhere near a fan of Adams. I found some of these parts hilarious, entertaining, and well done, but i absolutely hated others

Whatson
And for crying out loud, i wanted some actual hitchhiking, some adventure.

Whatson
Anyways, I'm glad i read it but moreso glad it is over, great but horrible, impressive but awful. I screamed/10. It'll stay on my book shelf but unlikely to be read again

Whatson
Welp. The worst part was Adams sorts into the very top of my (totally not stolen) bookcase, and had to shuffle them all down


Exacerangutan
rofl fair i mean that is basically Mark Twain's definition of a classic

Whatson
oh?

Exacerangutan
it goes something like "a classic is a book everyone wants to have read and nobody wants to read"

Whatson


Whatson
i think the "classics" I have read have contained some merit of various kind, some have been good and others i didn't like

Whatson
though I've barely started on what can be called "classics"

Exacerangutan
well lots of things have some merits but aren't exactly a thrilling read

Whatson
it depends on what it is i guess

/nod

Whatson
now to figure out what i want to read next

Whatson
thinking either The Stand, Robin Hood Collection, or continuing the Halo Forerunner trilogy

Whatson
Or maybe Dante's Inferno, Shakespeare omnibus or yolo it and continue my butchered translation of Verne

Lilith
STAND

Lilith
Although Shakespeare and Halo Forerunner


Lilith
Depends how fast you think you'll get

Whatson
I'll try the Stand
