My favorite Douglas Adams! I love "The Long, Dark Tea-time of the Soul"!
I tend to read a lot of non-fiction, but if you like Douglas Adams have you read Bill Bryson? My favorite is probably A Walk in the Woods: Rediscovering America on the Appalachian Trail (http://www.amazon.com/Walk-Woods-Rediscovering-Appalachian-Official/dp/0767902521/sr=8-4/qid=1169929698/ref=pd_bbs_4/102-9174815-1172923?ie=UTF8&s=books), which is about hiking the appalachian trail. Possibly funnier if you're a hiker! I also loved A Short History of Nearly Everything (http://www.amazon.com/Short-History-Nearly-Everything/dp/076790818X/sr=8-2/qid=1169929698/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2/102-9174815-1172923?ie=UTF8&s=books) which is about science.
Carl Hiaasen is one of my favorite writers; witty and well plotted. His new one is Nature Girl (http://www.amazon.com/Nature-Girl-Carl-Hiaasen/dp/0307262995/sr=1-1/qid=1169929899/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-9174815-1172923?ie=UTF8&s=books). You have to love a writer who's heroine is bipolar; and involves the attempted torture of a telemarketer.
