Darling, of course I've read all of the Hitchhiker's Guide books. I'll probably read Long Dark Teatime, as I'm sure I'll love it.

I've done some math on how long it'll take me to read these...and it's scary. Even if I read 5 a month, it'll still take me 16 or so years.

Well I'm still in control, as I've already decided that I want to read all of these very much
