Can you recommend a good comedic read?

I like a book, either fiction or non-fiction, that can make me laugh. I'm a comedy fan in general, so a funny book would be great

Any suggestions would be very welcome

I've read a lot of well-known comedian biographies already, so something different would be nice

Nomad by Alan Partridge, if you like AP at all you’ll love it. Honestly had me in stitches so many times!

Adrian Mole by Sue Townsend
The Public Confessions of a Middle Aged woman by Sue Townsend
Blott on the Landscape by Tom Sharpe
Bridget Jones Diary by Helen Fielding (book is much funnier than the films)

Depending on your tastes, Janet Evanovich's One for the Money made me laugh out loud the first time I read it. And if you enjoy it, there are now over twenty in the series. It's about Stephanie Plum, an inept bounty hunter, and her two very desirable men...

Bill Bryson is my other guaranteed laugh out loud read.
