Agree, he's a pretty funny guy--I also like his poetry books too--Frankenstein Makes a Sandwich and Frankenstein Takes the Cake.

I've been a humble lurker/learner on this list for a few years, not contributing very often, just content to soak in all I can from this amazing collection of minds and hearts. But I have to contribute two YA books I read recently, both of which had me laughing out loud:

My Most Excellent Year: A Novel of Love, Mary Poppins, and Fenway Park by Steve Kluger

Paper Towns by John Green. Though the main thrust of the book is serious, there are many laugh-out-loud parts.

I look forward to reading the recommendations made by others that I haven't read yet!

Thanks, Denise
