Started it last night. I have already had some lol moments!!
I believe i have watched the movie. But I am getting such a kick out of Arthur!
The ultimate question! Mice, people Dolphins, Whale, Plants...
If anyone else decides to listen to this Stephen Fry is doing a great job 🤣🤣 i am enjoying the sarcastic, blunt humor from the characters
I listened to it as well and loved it.

Sometimes Arthurs comments has me acting laughing out loud. Love when character dialogue is funny enough to do so
So I got on a flight to Boston and started this audiobook. Well I always fall into a meditative type of state when I fly and I was having the most vividly bizarre dreamlike visions as I was uncomfortably drifting in and out of my sleep like state! I will have to start the book again when I safely back to Florida! Flying in a plane listening to bizarre space travel is a bit strange, let me tell you!
started this evening as e-book. this is a re-read for me, but it's been a long time
pg30: "I could never get the hang of Thursdays*...after this week, samesies.
I enjoyed the audio version better with Stephen Fry narrating. It still is a bit absurd and out there for me but it was funny at times. I found Douglas Adam’s Humor juvenile and too satirical for me. He definitely has a cult following and people either love him or dislike his style. Stephen Fry made the book tolerable and witty at times. The dry British wit resonated throughout the book which is usually not my style of humor. No offense to my British friends.
I started reading this years ago and got pretty far, but dont remember much. Started up again this month, but it is going slow because i have many other books to read first.It is hilarious to see that Stephen Fry does a narration though, because i am currently watching him as Mr. Jeeves (from Jeeves and Wooster), and finished the Black Adder series not long before that too. Lol
