Character profile
The character I want to choose is Arthur. He is a very worried man. He has a confused look on his face, and is very unsure of what to do with himself. He is unlike Ford who is always in control. Arthur becomes more confident in himself throughout the story. He meets new friends, becomes brave, and actually socializes. As the main character you would think he is adventurous, but he is not. But Arthur is a kind person and gains a very strong leadership with close friends.

Week #3
The ending of the book was quite strange like the rest of the book. I didnt get most of it because it involved very weird speicies such as Vogons and etc. It was confusing to tell what is going on because Arthur thinks too hard. But I think the author is trying to tell a message about expanding your ideas. The last 30 pages or so was a movie of the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. I did expect a better ending but it was okay. Arthur started out as a very narrow minded and paranoid man, but in the end, he made friends and became a greater thinker.
Week #2
The book is very exciting. Arthur is traveling with his companion Ford, across the galaxy! He finds our the galaxy is bigger than earth itself. One thing I found very interesting is that the aliens made earth. They designed its blueprints, and created earth and are thinking of creating a new one! Just when Arthur couldn't believe this idea, aliens also commented that mice ruled the world, and that they were hyperintelligent beings! The plot is very weird, but it is very exciting to keep reading on.
