It did feel like it had a slightly different vibe to the first three books, although I can't exactly put my finger on why. Maybe it was just the shakeup of the characters? (Parallel narratives for Arthur and Ford, with Zaphod and Trillian out of the picture?) Arthur's storyline taking place on earth? Idk. I liked it overall, although I found myself raising my eyebrows over the mysteriously unacknowledged-until-the-end replacement of Trillian with manic pixie dream girl-type Fenny.

I loved the running bit about the truck driver who was a Rain God.
