Recommend comedy books

[StuH1]

Avid reader here who for a long time has read mainly crime fiction. Last year I read Bob Mortimer's debut novel which was a crime story to an extent but had comedic elements too. Having enjoyed it I now want to branch so does anyone have any recommendations please?

@Puppylucky , I haven't read his books but I really like his radio show , meet David sedaris its on bbc sounds , radio 4 extra.

@CarobyBlobs , I love anything to do with time travel so I will add this to my list , thankyou.

@Notgoodatpoetrybutgreatatlit thanks for the Dry recommendation. I picked it up yesterday - it's so funny, I've been crying laughing at parts.

Yes man by Danny Wallace is hilarious, may not fir in with the type of book you normally read but it didn't with mine and I couldn't put it down.

Was going to say David Sedaris. He's SO good. He tests his writing out with public readings, so it's genuinely funny. (quite dark as well in parts)

@AlmostCutMyHairToday we've been to see a couple of his readings - they're great! Although there was a thread on here years ago from a woman who went to see him, queued up afterwards for a book signing and was deeply offended by what he wrote in her book! I don't think she really got him 🙂

This series is funny and can be read by adults or young people
