Reader's Digest's 37 Funniest Books of All Time

"More than ever it's time for laughter. Most of the books on our list don't turn away from difficult subjects—they dive right in! The best comic authors explore what it means to be human, and they give that awkward, heartbreaking, relatable experience their own spin. In this case, you'll find novels, thrillers, and memoirs filled with hilarious prose, biting satire, and zany wit that will keep you chuckling as you turn the pages. Get ready to annoy the people sitting close by and wake up whoever's sleeping next to you. Here are the books that are guaranteed to make you LOL." - stage.rd.com
