The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

This was a fun read. I've always heard about this book as a classic of the genre, and I really enjoyed the specific version I read. The illustrations were super cool, and definitely added something to the book because the author didn't put a lot of work into describing the appearance of characters and things. That said, it wasn't all that I had hoped it to be in terms of plot. I could definitely see how it was released as a serial, and by the author's own admission he didn't plan it out beforehand.

Age range: 15+
Lots of substance-related jokes that probably wouldn't be appropriate for younger readers.
