What do you think of this book, Alden? It's so famous; what do you think has kept it so popular for so long?
ReplyDeleteHonestly I think this book is really silly and not for all people. If you a person who likes humour and randomization the its probably a good book to read. Part of the reason I believe it has stayed famous is because it has many ideas about the creation of the universe and the origin of life. Plus many people think is just a nice adventure book. Have you read it?
ReplyDeleteI read it a very long time ago, and it wasn't my favorite. I keep meaning to reread it :) It seems to have kind of a cult following, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteSome books are very enticing to people. All nook have groups of people that follow them very closely such as Star Wars. It just so happens to be that Hitchhiker fans are much more open and you can generally to who they are.
