***** Mostly Harmless by Douglas Adams. Science fiction. Re-read.
Every morning--every school day morning, that is--I make breakfast for the boys (ages 11 & 16), then while they're eating it, I read to them. We've been doing this for years, since before the youngest started school, and their sister (now 20) was at the table, too. Mostly Harmless was our latest morning read.
We all loved it, even if the ending had everyone a bit stunned. Mostly about Arthur, but Ford and Trillian were in there, too. We did miss Zaphod. All in all, a satisfying ending to the "increasingly inaccurately named Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy"... since it had to end, that is.
