"Life, the Universe and Everything" First Entry

This book is the third book of the Douglas Adams books. It does start with the weird and bizarre story again. Unlike the other books I observed the traits of each character to see how they were unique rather than humdrum characters. This is exactly what I do even in when I go anywhere for leisure or trips. Don't you get curious about what event is happening in the lives of the couples that are fighting in front of your eyes? That's what I had in my mind and I started to observe closely at strangers around me (I'm not a stalker....just to make sure). I found that it was such an interesting experience and I started to apply this into the novels or books I read. It's interesting to see that you can guess the character's next movements by staring at words rather than people's faces in the streets.
What I see in this novel is the crisis of the relationships with all the characters in the story. They start to go their own ways. This seems the same as us in reality because we sometimes become full of the people around us, including our own friends. Human instincts are more influential than the small sparks that arouse in us like Arthur and the others in the story. I hope to see more of this in the future (If I have time that is ^^;;)
