When Earth is set to be destroyed, Arthur Dent's friend, who is secretly an alien, takes him off of Earth, saving his life. Ford Prefect is a researcher for “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy”, a book that details out basically everything there is to know about the different planets, peoples, etc. What follows is a fun, silly adventure as they try to find their place now in a galaxy with Earth.

This book was fun. The story was silly and there were a few chuckles throughout. It was kind of boring, though. There didn't really feel like there were any stakes since the book was more lighthearted and fun. It wasn't a bad book by any means, but I don't really have a whole lot to say about it. It was cute with some fun characters and interesting settings. Worth a quick read if you like this kind of story.
