And which Nabeel reads the book....

The reason i put the title the way it is, is because each chapter is titled in this manor.

well i really am enjoying thins book. It is Really good. Sometimes though Youll need to read a paragraph over but thats really it.
It has a good plot and plenty of good characters.

so far the story reads that there is this girl named Sophie, who is the eldest of three sisters. She is also the "intern" or "apprentice" to a hat shop her mother owns. Each one of her hats she handcrafts to be special and unique, and they seem to have a magical effect on people. Soon enough though the evil Witch of the Waste comes barging in and orders to see a selection of hats. She dubbed them unworthy and since her "unworhty" hats has such an effect on people and hers didnt she should get punished. So she turns this young 20 year old into a old saggy 90 year old.

she runs away so that her mother does not find out and stumbles across the evil but dashingly young wizard Howl. this man is said to eat the hearts of young women and devoure them into his own soul to live longer. But shes not young so who cares? she continues and slowly learns that Howl is just a lazy bum who doesnt want to get near a real full time job.

But to deal with her old age problem she makes a deal with the fire demon, named Calcifier, that controls the moving house. The deal goes as so; *ahem* if Sophie breaks the deal he and Howl had made the demon will in turn make her young again.

And so lets see how this book continues...

New BOOK!!!!! ^_^

srry for this. my original post got frozen and didnt allow for me to take it back :S SORRY!!!!

It's....over?

well i just finished reading the book, and all i have to say is...WHY? Why did it finish so fast? I saw that it had 340+ pages and when i got to page 290 or so the next page said "now for our 92 page 'the making of The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: movie'" I got so put off. Well anyway not to say that it wasn't a great book but i wanted so read MORE!!!! Oh well, guess i gotta read the next book in the series.

But so i dont leave you hagging on what went on...

-the main characters got stuck on a Mutant Tadpol's descendant's ship who writes such horrible poetry. he is ranked third compared to a British 20 year old. After the main characters gave the man-toad-fish-creepy awwww the stinky gross green guy a review of the poem they were thrown into space.

-then when all hope seemed lost a random ship, called "the heart of gold", picked them up on pure chance with an improbability count of 2^100,000 to one against and falling

-there they met the last female human Trillian and Zaphod Beeblbroxa two headed and three armed alien, one of the arms is cybernetical. And the two mice

-apparently the ship was stolen and headed for a mythical planet that made other planets that was said to have died off and closed around 5 million years ago.

-they eventually arrived there and were greeted by two nukes. (i guess it was active :S)

-when they got there it was totally deserted, but eventually made it into the planet and discovered that all of its main functions were still up and running and one sole person was still alive, but his name is not important.

-they soon learned that our planet, earth, was made there to fit a customers orders to make a planet that can be used as a computer (yes apparently our planet's a computer and were the circuts or something) and the customers were.....you'll never guess........want me to tell you?...well...the costomer is.....all....of...the.....MICE!!! yes mice from a super intelligent paradimensional universe orderd for our planet to be created to allow a 5 billion year question embarkment...the question of an answer.

-you see about 15 billion years ago a couple of cumpeter nerd created a computer to answer the ultimate question, What is the answer to life, the universe and everything? And after 5 billion years of waiting it turned out to be....42 -_-; The people were all stunned at this lame answer so the comp said to build a new one and figure out what the question actually was...but the dumb aliens destroyed it 5 minutes before it was about to give the answer

-then some random police came, tried to shoot em and thcharacters fled to The Resturant at the End of th Universe...

Yeah thats how it ends, thats why i thought it ended to quickly

Wow..that was random!

"I *glub* can talk like *glub* YOUUUU!"

This is such an intresting book, well not at first but that is how most books are anyways right? Anyway this book has a nice way of pulling you in. Once you really understand whats going on that is. Whats funny is that there are things there that are all sciency and mathematical but seem like they deserve to be in a morons dictionary. Its very random like that... for example a man is told by his boss that a demolition notice for his house was set up lto make wa for an expressway, and the notice was in an easily found area: in a locked filing cabinet, thats in a closed closet with a broken light, in a dark hallway, in the 2nd basement under the place he works. then later on out of nowhere these aliens come and say "sorry EARTH but your planet has to be destroyed to make an intergalactic speedway you didn't file any complaints so we thought it would be fine" "WHERE WAS THIS NOTICE?" "In the andomeda galaxy inqueiries" and get randomly blown up but later on there wasnt a need at all -_-'

Then theres a babelfish that translate any language for you through a bunch of random neurons transmittance and such, creating a scientific aura, then the books says "so then i heard HOWL HOWL GRRR UMMMPPP how was your day we shall now kill the passengers on board" totally destroying that. its SOOOO random but funny ^_^

First entry intro

Well, hello, for my independent reading assignment I chose to read "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams. I have heard from a lot of people that this book is both informative and funny, inculding many science puns, and I like sciency things. I expect that this book is funny but has an intresting story line, I think that its about some man or alien trying to find his way in the galaxy/universe.

Though I expected Douglas Adams be some sort of high ranked student or teacher in the feild of literature and had writen many other books but I did not think that he won 3 Golden Pan prizes and his books translated in Swedish nor German.

Let's see if there are about 215-224 pages in total, it varies from book to book, and I read about 100 pages a week or more it should take me less than 3 weeks to finish!
