Well, I did it again! After I posted the last blog I realized it was just as long as all the others! Ok, I will keep trying to shorten them.

Earlier I talked about the author Robert B Parker and in going through my bookshelf I found 3 more of his books. I'm not going to talk about them, other than to list them so that they are included. The first is a Sunny Randall book-Blue Screen. The other two are Spenser books which is where I started with Parker-Sudden Mischief and Hundred-Dollar Baby.

I'm staying really short this week. I don't have a finished book. However, the one I've started is Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams. I've started it a dozen times but never managed to finish it. But my 17-year-old found it and I've decided this time I'm actually going to finish it. I'll let you know.

Oooh, Constance discovered Douglas Adams?

You should both read the "Dirk Gently Holistic Detective Agency" and its sequel "the Long Dark Teatime of the Soul"

Those are both as funny as the first hitch-hiker book (funnier than the hitch-hiker sequels!) and likely to be more your speed.

I am struggling with Hitchhiker which I know is strange coming from someone who still loves the classic Star Trek. I just don't find it very funny-it's too slapstick. But I'll check out the other 2 that you listed.
