Funny books
Books that make readers laugh, whether through sharp dialogue, absurd situations or a narrator with a good eye for the ridiculous. Terry Pratchett's Night Watch mixes jokes with real feeling, Andy Weir's The Martian survives on sarcasm, and Trevor Noah's Born a Crime finds humour in a hard childhood. Matt Dinniman's Dungeon Crawler Carl series proves that even a deadly dungeon can be funny.
