Jim's Review

🐛
Jim laughed so hard reading this that he nearly fell out of his apple. Douglas Adams wrote the funniest sci-fi book ever penned, and that's not even debatable. The answer to life, the universe, and everything? Forty-two. The answer to "should I read this book?" Also forty-two. Actually, it's just YES. Don't panic, don't forget your towel, and burrow into this one immediately. Five worms — absolutely essential.
