Books that made you laugh out loud

[toolazytothinkofausername]

Please can you suggest a book that made you laugh out loud. I need more laughter in my life right now, and I am bored of streaming TV/film

Are you experienced by William Sutcliffe. ..its quite old now though!

Good omens by Terry pratchet and Neil gaimen

Most of P G Wodehouse, particularly the ‘Blandings’ and ‘Jeeves’ books.

Many of Bill Brysons earlier books. I had to stop reading them on the Tube as I laughed so much. I must've looked a little crazy!

Emma Kennedy's books (i can't remember what they're all called but one is the tent, the bucket and me)

Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy

Roddy Doyle - most of his - although there's a dark side to them as well usually.

The Red Dwarf books. Proper snort out your nose funny

The Chronicles of St Mary's by Jodi Taylor.

Tina Fey’s autobiography “bossypants “

Marian Keyes
Watermelon
😂😂

I always recommend Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum series - first book is One For the Money. Rachel’s Holiday by Marian Keyes is head and shoulders above the rest of hers. And yes to Bill Bryson.

I tried that Emma Kennedy one because it gets recommended so much on here but wasn’t a fan. I don’t think I bothered to finish it and that is rare for me.

Dave Gorman
Allie Brosh's hyperbole and a half

Yes I was going to mention Bill Bryson too! The one where he travels round Europe, it’s called “neither here nor there”. It’s absolutely hilarious.

Notes from a small island and Road to Little Dribbling by Bill Bryson

Diary of a witchcraft shop 1 and 2 by Trevor Jones and Liz Williams

Bill Bryson, esp Notes from a small island and the one where he travels around Europe, Iactually wet myself laughing at that once!!

Terry Pratchett's Discworld books. Though not the first four, he took a while to hit his stride.

Sorry, not the first three. Mort is book four and is very funny.

Round Ireland with a Fridge, Tony Hawks. Properly laughed out loud. French Revolutions, Tim Moore is another cracker and A Year in the Merde, Stephen Clarke is terrific. Love travel as a genre!

Yes indeed to Bill Bryson.
All so funny. The Thunderbolt Kid if you wanted just one pick.

Terry Pratchett, my wife always knows when I am reading Discworld as I keep giggling

Three Men in a Boat, Jerome K Jerome

Wodehouse Blandings Castle etc

Lilian Beckwith's books set on a Scottish island. I remember reading them in my teens and being vastly amused

I am Ozzy

Any David Thorne book, Stephanie Plum series, Jason Byrnes autobiography, I've just re-read it and still laughed.

Joe Lycett's Parsnips, Buttered makes me laugh every time I read it.

Emma Kennedy's ' the tent the bucket and me' has got to be the funniest laugh out loud book I have ever read! One of those books I wish I could forget so I could read it again
