If you need some fun in your life, this podcast on the funniest books is for you. Kristin from Fables and I agree that we don’t gravitate toward lighthearted books so it is always a fun surprise when books like these bring us unexpected joy.Expand your book stack beyond the funny classics like Tina Fey, Mindy Kaling, Bill Bryson,  and Trevor Noah. This humorous book stack offers some under-the-radar books that hit all the right funny notes.Whether you are looking for short stories, science fiction, a collection of essays, middle-aged hilarity,  or coming-of-age YA humor- we have you covered.We want to remind our listeners that Fables is our partnered bookshop and all of the links do go directly to their store. Remember, this shop also offers a used book collection. Please support our indie book shop. Mentioned in this episode:This Will Be Funny Later by Jenny PentlandFables Books Reading Challenge 2022Book Gang Podcast: How The StoryGraph Can Enhance Your Reading LifeHow to Use the StoryGraph App For a Better Reading LifeBorn a Crime by Trevor NoahThe Book of Polly by Kathy HepinstallStandard Deviation by Katherine HeinyMickey 7 by Edward AshtonHollow Kingdom by Kira Jane BuxtonFeral Creatures by Kira Jane BuxtonKira Jane Buxton on InstagramAs You Wish by Cary ElwesHow to be Perfect by Michael SchurYou’ll Grow Out of It by Jessi Klein essayInside Amy SchumerBossypants by Tina FayeIs Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? by Mindy KalingWeird Things Customers Say in Bookstores by Jennifer CampbellWhat If Its Us by Becky Albertalli & Adam SilveraHere’s To Us by Becky Albertalli & Adam SilveraThey Both Die At The End by Adam SilveraSimon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky AlbertalliOnce More Upon a Time by Roshani ChokskiBarbie in The 12 Dancing PrincessesHappy and You Know It by Laura HankinMcSweeney’sFunny or DieA Ladder to the Sky by John BoyneOne Last Stop by Casey McQuistonRed, White and Royal Blue by Casey McQuistonBonus Books (From Fables Book Club):All That She Carried by Tiya MilesNetwork Effect by Martha WellsMurderbot DiariesHouse in the Cerulean Sea by T.J.
