Looking for something light to read when I get the urge to use social media. Trying to redirect my attention to something more productive. Fiction or non-fiction, doesn’t matter.

What kind of funny are you looking for? Like some witty s***, or straight-up jokes

Inherent Vice might be a good one

Something by Tom Robbins

Thomas pynchon

guards! guards! by terry pratchett

John Swartzwelder has a bunch of comic noir books. They're light and fun. He wrote some of the best episodes of the Simpsons. It's called the Frank Burly series. The first one is called The Time Machine Did It. Def lighter than Thomas Pynchon

The funniest book I read this year was probably Pop 1280 by Jim Thompson. Read like a Coens brothers movie. Very short and easy

Witty, light-hearted, nothing too profound

The Good Soldier Švejk - Czech idiot savant gets up to hijinks in World War I

Started reading another Frank Burly just because of this thread.

Looking For Love by Alissa Nutting is funny, got made into a show that was ok. White Noise by Don DeLillo has some of my favorite comedic lines of dialogue I’ve ever read, very dry dark comedy

Blood Meridian

This. S*** had me hollering

Not so fast

Ive only read colour of magic, but i f***ing love it. Highly recommend discworld as an extrapolation
