Any Jeeves and Wooster book by P. G. Wodehouse. I’d pick *The Code of the Woosters*. But it’s not like you’d go wrong with *Thank You, Jeeves* or *Right Ho, Jeeves* or *Stiff Upper Lip, Jeeves*, to pick three others.

Fanny Hill by John Cleland (Risky, but interesting. It is the most famous pornographic book in the English language and there’s not a single dirty word in it)

Bachelor Brothers’ Bed & Breakfast by
Bill Richardson.
A pair of endearingly eccentric bachelors–in their fifties, and fraternal twins–own and operate a bed & breakfast establishment where people like them, the “gentle and bookish and ever so slightly confused,” can feel at home. Hector and Virgil think of their B&B as a refuge, a retreat, a haven, where folks may bring their own books or peruse the brothers’ own substantial library. An antic blend of homespun and intellectual humor, Bachelor Brothers’ Bed & Breakfast is a place readers will want to return to again and again.
Bachelor Brothers’ Bed & Breakfast, originally published by Douglas & McIntyre, won Canada’s prestigious Stephen Lecock Award for Humour in 1994.

“A Most Agreeable Murder” is a funny mix of Jane Austen and Agatha Christie
Maybe give some Bill Bryson a go. My two favorites of his are “A Walk in the Woods” and “In a Sunburned Country”

Standing in the Rainbow by Fanny Flagg. It starts in the early 1950s and is a very warm and charming book about small town middle America, mainly centered around a woman who runs a radio program out of her living room.
