i think eggplants are better than this book. i have enjoyed many things in my long, tender life but this book is not one of them. i would rather eat an eggplant than read this book again,,, and that is saying something since i am an eggplant. rate: 1 out of 10 eggplants.

I thought it was a pretty decent book, although I’ve never really read a sci-fi book as it’s not my thing. I thought it was pretty funny but I didn’t really enjoy the plot, it also got pretty confusing at times and the ending was disappointing.
Katie Bonk • Sep 12, 2016 at 1:16 pm
I did not like it. It was confusing and I didn’t ever really understand the plot line or why everything was happening.
Trevor Burns • Sep 12, 2016 at 1:15 pm
I didn’t particularly like the book. I thought it was quite confusing and a little too silly for ninth graders.

I personally don’t like the book it was kind of a childish book. The story plot seemed more for littler kids and not for highschoolers.

I did not enjoy the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy because of the way it was. It had no plot or point to it in my opinion and it was really weird. I didn’t understand anything that was happening and for that I didn’t enjoy reading this book.

I did not like the book hitchhiker’s guide to the Galaxy

I kind of liked the book because it wasnt really a story about anything which makes it so interesting. There is about a billion things crammed into just one book and it is sort of mental how someone actually came to think of all of this stuff. Write a book on it then publish it.
Taylor Moore • Sep 9, 2016 at 9:16 am
I do not like the book
Connor Craig • Sep 9, 2016 at 9:16 am
For me the book was pretty boring, after some time of reading I would start to get bored and eventually just stop reading it for that day.
Taylor Moore • Sep 9, 2016 at 9:16 am
I do not like the book.
Nathan DeGregorio • Sep 9, 2016 at 9:15 am
I didn’t like the book because I thought that is was pretty boring and barely made sense to me.
Thiago filadelfo • Sep 9, 2016 at 9:14 am
I did not like the book at all
idk • Sep 9, 2016 at 8:29 am
It was not very good.
Thomas Coffey • Sep 9, 2016 at 8:27 am
The book was okay there were parts i liked and part i didnt it got confusing at some points and. i liked ecyclopedia galatica entries and the use of forshadowing. I didnt like the names as they were confusing.
Zachary Ostroff • Sep 9, 2016 at 8:26 am
I thought the book was extremely hard to follow and it didn’t make sese
Nina Carlsen • Sep 9, 2016 at 8:25 am
I think that the summer reading book was okay, I would not recommend the book to people who don’t like to read. I think that the book did have some good parts to it like the adventures there where and the challenges they had to get through. There was also some funny parts to the book, I liked Marvin the depressed robot. I thought he said some funny things.
Celia Manousaridis • Sep 9, 2016 at 8:24 am
I didn’t like the book at all. I thought it was choppy and rushed, the only good parts were some of the dialogue. But other than that, I disliked the whole outer space concept and the names were too difficult to pronounce. The names might have been humorous to others but to me it just slowed down the book and made it harder to read.
Flynn • Sep 9, 2016 at 8:22 am
I liked the book, I found the humor and events in the book to be interesting and enjoyable.
Will • Sep 9, 2016 at 8:22 am
I did not like the book.
Troy Bolton • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:44 am
When I first picked up this book it was the start of something new. It felt so right to be reading you. While reading this book I had to keep my head in the game. I felt like I was breaking free, soaring, flying cause with this book there’s not a star in heaven that we can’t reach! I’m not gonna stop, that is the way to turn my life around. Today is the day, that I’m the type of guy who means what I say I love Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
London Tipton • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:42 am
The book wasn’t expensive enough to be good, so I knew right off the bat that it would be a letdown. I read a a page, then threw it away. Yay me for reading that page!
Emily Daeipour • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:40 am
It’s a no for me.
Rosa Pageau • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:40 am
agreed
Rosa Pageau • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:39 am
i vote no.

“Hitchhikers Guide to Galaxy” was not a good book. There were many reasons why I did not enjoy the book. For one, the book didn’t have much of a plot and it didn’t make sense. They were on earth, then they are in space and then earth blows up and now they are traveling to his planet called Margrathea. Also, I know the humor was talked about a lot and I didn’t enjoy the humor and it was not my type of humor.
Kevin Tucker • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:31 am
Hitchikers guide to the galaxy is a book that was very confusing to read. It is my least favorite summer reading book that I have read.
Jared Orentlich • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:30 am
I actually really enjoyed the book and it’s sense of humor.
Makenna Szacki • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:30 am
I did not like this book at all. I believe it was very repetitive and there was no actual plot. The story just kinda moved from place to place without explaining what is happening at the time. I believe the author had good intentions and probably wrote other good books but this book did not speak to me. I would not recommend this book.
Calvin Narris • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:30 am
In my opinion, A hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy was a pretty funny book.
Billy Bertonazzi • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:29 am
The hitchhiker a guide to the Galaxy is s book I didn’t like and I think it would be better if the plot was easier to follow
TroyBrown • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:29 am
I generally think that the book was bad but there were some funny parts. I would rate it a 2 out of 5 stars
Kevin Tucker • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:28 am
Hitchikers guide to the galaxy is a book that was very confusing to read. It was probably my least favorite book to read.
Joey • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:28 am
It was pretty swell. I thought it was funny. 10 out of 10 would read again
Jack McLaughlin • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:27 am
I honestly thought the book had its moment, but it mostly bored me for the most part. I thought the humor was not funny, and was overall a disappointment.
Leah Barker • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:24 am
I liked some parts of the book but certain parts of it were confusing.
Julianna Pike • Sep 9, 2016 at 7:23 am
I think this book was really boring and I lost interest right away.
