Gimme your favorite funny books, please. I have finished all of Nora Ephron, Samantha Irby, and Bill Bryson. Not quite in the mood for David Sedaris, but I may test that theory. Essays are fine, Fiction or non, just good, funny writing please!

I pictured the cast of this book as muppets. A book filled with tiny miseries and radiant positivity.

A murder mystery that asks the question “what if Jo Firestone (I mean come on) pretended to be a detective?”

“The second in a perfect series. A detective story that is well written, keeps you guessing, and catches you off guard with moments of offbeat humor. The first was Murder on Sex Island, a delight! Am I also reading trendy Ann Patchett, Elizabeth Strout, and Ferdia Lennon? Yes, but Jo Firestone is the best among giants.”
