These Books Will Make You Smile

Having read all these books, I can attest that some are subtly humorous, some will make you laugh out loud. Others are unintentionally funny because of their historical attitudes (Around the World in 80 Days, The Double Helix) or their ridiculous plots (e.g. The Big Four). Many poke fun at the trials or absurdities of life and might be heartbreaking at the same time.
