Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly topic hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. Each week she provide a topic and you are free to use that topic and/or variations of that topic to make your top ten list. A full list of the weekly themes can be found here.
Apparently, I need to read more funny books because I couldn’t find any I’ve read. So, here are comedic book that I’d like to read.
My love for Nora Ephron knows no bounds, and I don’t know why I haven’t read any of her books before. I Feel Bad About My Neck (or any of her writings) are something I need to read soon!
I’ve heard from a friend that this was a great book. I actually got a free copy, so I definitely need to read it this year.
Another book that was recommended to me, one that I also own, and still haven’t read. The Eyre Affair seems like a fun and funny book and a good twist on a classic novel.
Okay, apparently I really need to start reading books that I already own. I meant to read this before the series premiered, but that did not happen.
Finally, a book that I do not own…yet! I have heard of David Sedaris for years but never actually read any of his books. Hopefully, I can read Calypso sometime this year.
A book I heard about since it was longlisted for the Man Booker Prize. Skippy Dies is a tragic comedy about Skippy a young Irish teenager who dies and the mysteries surrounding it.
A satire about a race trial that goes in front of the Supreme Court. Beatty challenges the sacred tenets of the United States Constitution, urban life, the civil rights movement, the father-son relationship, and the holy grail of racial equality―the black Chinese restaurant.
I’ve loved Trevor Noah for years! And, yes before you ask, I do already own this book….
What can I say, murder can be funny…A book about a mystery and one that’s hilarious definitely needs to be read!
A humorous cultural critique on misogyny in America and the #MeToo movement? Yes, please!!
Happy Reading Darlings!
The Martian and Good Omens were both excellent!

They’re definitely going to be read sometime in the next week or so!
The Martian was such a fun read indeed! Happy reading! My TTT https://readwithstefani.com/books-that-made-me-laugh-out-loud/
I struggled with this topic, too! Apparently, there aren’t enough funny books in my life. I’m getting some good recs from other people’s lists today, though.
Happy TTT!

I’ve read the first five on your list, but only the Nora Ephron in print. The other four I listened to on audio. Very funny, all five! I like to listen to David Sedaris’s books on audio because he reads them himself, but they’re good in print, too. I’ll have to check out the last five on your list.
Ohhhh, I might listen to David Sedaris’s books then if he reads them!
Well, I’d highly recommend Good Omens. And if you’re pressed for time/ stuck with reader’s block, go for the show! Fun list, and I hope you get to read all of these.
