They are short, humorous. Start with The Colour of Magic.

Holidays on Ice is short and funny as hell
Me Talk Pretty One Day is longer but just as funny

Yeah those are old books but they are good.

ruined several items of clothing and bed linens from spewing beer/water/tea while reading this book.

Me Talk Pretty One Day, etc etc.

Loads of laughs and fun

or Christopher Moore.

On edit: Or Terry Pratchett

series by Nick Petrie. The first novel is "The Drifter."

just finished Razor Girl....this was crazy even by Hiaasen's standards. Great read if you love Florida weirdness...

I need to read Razor Girl; we have it but I have not gotten around to reading it.

Have you read his young reader books:

Chomp Scat Hoot Flush
There is a new one called Squirm.

They are just as good as the more adult books and definitely touch on the environment.. I have not read them all

thanks for the heads up...

Good, sometimes dark, humor, with very much a pro-environment message. At least all the ones I've read (which is most of them) are set in Florida.

An alternate universe that runs on magic. They have a parallel to our EPA that has to deal with problems when people misuse spells.

Funny and very clever.

The Sex Lives of Cannibals: Adrift in the Equatorial Pacific is a 2004 travelogue by author J. Maarten Troost describing the two years he and his girlfriend spent living on the Tarawa atoll in the Pacific island nation of Kiribati. Wikipedia

Almost anything Elmore Leonard.

One of the few laugh out loud books I've ever read

I've read just about everything of his that I can find.

Wish there were more.

If you like southern humor or want to understand life in in the south ...

Some of his titles:
They Tore Out My Heart and Stomped That Sucker Flat
If Love Were Oil, I'd Be About a Quart Low
Elvis Is Dead and I Don't Feel So Good Myself
Shoot Low Boys - They're Riding Shetland Ponies
My Daddy Was a Pistol and I'm a Son of a Gun
When My Love Returns From the Ladies Room, Will I Be Too Old To Care?
Don't Bend Over in the Garden, Granny - You Know Them Taters Got Eyes
Lewis Grizzard on Fear of Flying
Lewis Grizzard's Advice To The Newly Wed . . . & the Newly Divorced
Chili Dawgs Always Bark At Night

It recently got turned into a show on Amazon's streaming service (haven't seen it yet, but I want to). It's about the angel who guarded the Garden of Eden and the Serpent who tempted Eve (who have become somewhat friends over the centuries) trying to stop Armageddon by trying to find the anti-Christ who is a young boy living in England.

It's very much in the vein of, "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy."

The series is excellent. It is funny, serious, will make you laugh and think. It can't get much better than that.

Can't go wrong with Tennant as Crowley.

TlalocW

He always wears dark glasses to hide his snake eyes.

He was Crawley, and he changed it.

TlalocW

by Alan Bennett. It's a novella and a complete delight.

yes, I said that.

Life Among the Savages and Raising Demons

Hopefully you can get from the library. If you get her anthology (I found it on Amazon for Kindle) both are included.

These books are about her large family (fictionalized somewhat) and their adventures in a drafty old house in Vermont. Each chapter is basically a self contained story so there isn't a lot of plotline to follow.

Loads of fun. everyone of them. Recommend reading them in order, but you don't have to.


*typo on edit - iPhone......

.... I have ever read in my entire life.

The Masters of Solitude, is a 1978 science fiction novel written by Marvin Kaye and Parke Godwin.

This novel so consumed me that I felt as if I was living it myself. I was there. I personally shared in the love, laughter, and the tears. It was a fantastic journey.

It is like mythology or a fairy tale.
I am just wrapped up in the story.

Highly recommended.

On a dark and stormy night in a tavern on a river the townsfolk gather to tell stories. A very strange man bursts in with the body of a child in his arms........but she wakes.....and several families from town who have lost children claim her.....

Can't tell you how it ends...still reading.

His books skewer the British aristocracy.

Especially the Jeeves & Wooster stories. And I thought the BBC tv series was bril!
