(read via audiobook, often during long sunny drives and laughing at hilarious lines in traffic)

Martin Freeman is Arthur Dent in my brain, bathrobe and all. Forever. At least since I saw the movie as a child.


This book is absurd in the best way: clever, chaotic, oddly tender, and weirdly soothing—like wrapping yourself in a towel mid-existential crisis.


Favorite line? "So long and thanks for all the fish.” Because same. 🐬


A delightful spiral into space, bureaucracy, and British humor that reminded me how small we are—and how funny that can be.


Best enjoyed: With a towel, tea, and zero expectations for logic (and maybe with a cat to chase those mice away)
