'The Constant Library',  Volume X:
"The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy ," Douglas Adams.'

"The idea for 'The Constant Library' follows on from a recent conversation considering which books had, and continue to have, the greatest affect my life in a variety of different ways. These are the books I can't live without and whenever possible I have a copy of with me wherever I travel in the world; my 'Constant Library."

As you may be able to tell from the photograph I have read this book a lot over the years. You just won't believe how seriously often I've read this book. I mean you might think that rereading the odd Harry Potter book once every couple of years is a lot, but that's just peanuts to this. Listen...

Yes, I did just paraphrase from Hitch Hiker's, on this occasion I did it deliberately, I think. That's the problem, I've read this book, or should I say these books, as this volume actually contains all four of the original Hitch Hike's stories; The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Life, The Universe and Everything and So Long, and Thanks for all the Fish, so often that it's hard for me to tell what is my actual style of thinking, talking and writing or what I have inherited from Adams works.

Yes, I do even do that king of things with sentences.

And so to finish I feel that all I need to say now is encapsulated in an aspect of my introduction to the Constant Library, that being that these are books that have had and and continue to have a great affect on my life...

Oh, and also to say if you haven't read then, DO!
