How to narrow the answers to these questions? 🤯🫠
1. Maybe some characters from The Neverending Story by Michael Ende?
Xayíde, Ygramul the Many, Atréyu, Bastian Bathazar Bux, Carl Conrad Coreander, Grograman etc. have maybe had the greatest impact.
Fantasy seems to be the best & neverending source for weird names... 😄
2. The tagged one, among so many other options...

pickSadly, Salmon Of Doubt was never completed 😢 It would've made such an awesome book. Dirk Gently is such a cool character and I would've loved to read what Douglas Adams would've made out of this idea (where's the other half of the cat? 🤔) The book includes different by and about DA. Done didn't interest me that much, but many were hilarious. Just DA being DA.
pickGreat fun but impossible to summarise without spoilers.Although it is unrelated to H2G2, they are noticeably akin.

Remembering Douglas Adams on his birthday.
so-soI think I can definitively say I've “outgrown“ Adams's humor. There is a lot to like in this especially if the slightly absurd is your cup of tea but for me this was a little underwhelming. I didn't hate my time with this but I also didn't think it was laugh out loud funny either. Solid story where seemingly disparate elements come together in the end but only just okay for me.

Pretty good reading week. Finished the last three Earthsea installments in my omnibus so I got to cross it off my bookspin backlist. Also got about half way through Dirk Gently.
#Weekly Forecast
Goal this week is to finish both Dirk Gently and Anansi Boys and try to keep up with my 155 page a day schedule.
HAPPY #BOOKSPIN DAY to all who celebrate. This is the highlight of my reading month. I‘m still five books behind for the year but so excited for the new picks. Tagged is my BookSpin and my double is Hyperion.

Day 286.
Here I will note 365 books (or as many as I will have before I get tired) that have shaped my taste in literature. No explanations, no reviews. Just the cover of the book.
I do not challenge anyone. You are all welcome to take part.
