A classic that I finally got round to reading. There’s a lot that goes on in this book but essentially, it’s about a normal human called Arthur whose friend is actually an alien and then the Earth gets destroyed and Arthur gets to travel around space, rather begrudgingly.

I would explain more but you can just read the plot summary on Wikipedia if you don’t want to read the book. This book is simply just an entertaining read. If you’re bored of reading about serious real-life things, then this would probably do the trick. It’s light-hearted and hard not to like so have a read if you want.
