Good morning people I'm just having a coffee and decided to pop in and see if I could get some recommendations on some of your favorite books that you think are funny. Any suggestions are welcome.

Great thread bro!

Hmm...an easy read, but an entertaingly funny one. It mentally illustrates awkward moments quite nicely :lol: especially through the mindset of a kid lol.

The Dirk Gently books are pretty funny too, especially the second one Long Dark Tea-time of the Soul. Great as audio books, Adams read them all himself.

Pretty much any book by Kurt Vonnegut. Someone else said Catch 22, also a classic. :thumbup: Charles Bukowski's books can be pretty funny as well.

Breakfast of Champions
by: Kurt Vonnegut

Women
by: Charles Bukowski

Post Office
by: Charles Bukowski

EDIT: Forgot Ham on Rye by Bukowski :grin:

Yeah, just did a search and they do have it. One copy in English(in my area), and 19 in Finnish. I'll pick it up tomorrow :thumbup:

Thanks for the tip!

Ham on Rye and Women are 2 of the funniest books I've ever read. I think I'll finish Confederacy of Dunces before moving on to more Bukowski though I need something a little more pleasant.
