    Two so far today, probably another three by the time I go to bed.

    Having a young kid is kind of cheating though 😁

    I finished one over the weekend and I’m reading The Two Lies of Faven Sythe by Megan O’Keefe now.

    Levar Burton is one of the major reasons I love reading and have read 32 books so far this year. I love that man! 💚

      Oh, “And Another Thing”? I didn’t enjoy that at all. It was like a rehash of old jokes and I felt the author was barely familiar with the previous work. I remember coming across one rehashed joke they clearly hadn’t understood completely. Can’t remember the details, though.

        As far as I know, Eoin Colfer was always very fond of the work of Douglas Adams. Jane Belson, the widow of Adams, supported the last novel being written by Colfer. The book does not have the same drive at all times, but it is a fairly alright last chapter to an epic and bonkers saga. Colfer had some very big shoes to fill here and I think he did a solid job.

        Personally, I liked the first 4 books best. Starship Titanic is quite funny, too. My all time favourite book of Douglas Adams is Last chance to see, though. :)
