I'm reading them now at age 30 out of curiosity. Wish I had read them sooner. They're not as bad as I thought. I mean, sure, vintage British humor, light reading and all that, but they're quite pure. Essentially just picaresque novels in space.

Lets try and clarify what we mean by a reddit book. What do All reddit books have in common?
Is it the light-heartedness that gets to the lit patrician?
Is the content for male feminists or liberals?
Is it that its easy to read, but posting it on reddit gives you a lot of updoots?

The problem is this book attracts very cringey atheists. So they all read it and adopt this really glib, facetious, and pedantic way of referring to Earth/humans in this annoying "in the broader picture of the universe we're just hairless apes on water ball" tone. It's retarded.
