Hello can someone suggest me a book that is funny. I really enjoyed a confederacy of dunces. I was recommended the master and margarita but I don’t think I can handle that one yet.
P.S I just finished between two fires. I loved it but I need something more light hearted for the next read.

Catch-22, it is set during war but it’s a satire and is very funny
If you liked Confederacy of Dunces, you might like Cold Comfort Farm by Stella Gibbons. Completely different setting and time period, but similar low key, deadpan funny.
Small Gods by Terry Pratchett
Jana DeLeon Miss Fortune series and Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich are both laugh out loud light mysteries.
A Walk in the Woods
Let’s Pretend This Never Happened by Jenny Lawson.
Hyperbole and a Half by Allie Brosh.
Any collection of short stories by SNL writer Simon Rich.
Christopher Moore is great – people typically say Lamb is the best, but Fluke and A Dirty Job are my favorites
