"Don't panic!"
This book was pretty freaking hilarious... I don't know where Douglas Adams came up with this stuff, but HOLY COW!!! I about died laughing... Slartibartfast? Betelgeuse? Putting a fish in your ear? *Sings, "Put a banana in your ear!!"* 42? Imminent domain for an intergalactic wormhole? *chuckles* The irony was soooo classic! ;)

The wildly wacky novel that features Thursdays you can't get the handle of and teaches the importance of towels. The plot involves aliens and the last human's journey after Earth is destroyed. If you haven't read it yet, you are in for a treat.
