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!

This book seems really cool already. The book cover got me interested XP. The author seems to be a great writer. I hope to read this book as my next independent reading book. :)
