A Confederacy of Dunces (if you want to laugh out loud, you’ll want to go with this one)
PG Wodehouse’s Jeeves books (also LOL funny)
I’m so with you on this, I really detest how every damn book has to still yield to the trope that everyone wants to fall in love. I thoroughly enjoy the fun ones that don’t!

If you’re open to very long books, I recommend [The Hands of the Emperor](https://share.google/ID8EUnwDjqkoB35LB) by Victoria Goddard! It’s a beautifully written slice of life book about the personal secretary to the emperor of the world, with a heavy focus on platonic relationships.
