What are the books that make you snicker and laugh out loud? What authors give you the giggles. They don't need to explicitly be comedy first books. Maybe the author just has a funny way of putting things.
Pretty much anything by Vonnegut got me out of the slump I was in. Cat’s Cradle is a go-to, along with Slaughterhouse Five and Breakfast of Champions.

Yahtzee Croshaw, funny author with great characters.
Differently Morphus and Existentially Challenged – Governmental agency involved in the regulation of magic and extra dimensional beings.
Mogworld – Main character is undead. Hijinks insue.
The Jacques McKeown series – An unemployed star pilot tries to get by in a universe where transporters are a thing. The first book in the series is Will save the galaxy for food.
How to fight presidents by Daniel O’Brien. A collection of interesting facts about past US presidents. Loosely based on the idea that you are a time traveler who has accidently offended all the presidents and now has to fist fight them.
If you enjoy the outdoors, anything by Patrick McManus. Ie. The Grasshopper Trap, Ponies Don’t Say Oink

A Confederacy of Dunces is hilarious.
