Most of good literature is just so damn gloomy, even if it isn't pessimistic or anything, it still tends to deal with serious subject matter. It gets heavy when it is all I read.
If I want to read to feel good every once in a while, to have a break from all this serious stuff, do I need to turn to genre fiction or god forbid, YA? Is there a way to find happy literature? It must surely exist.
tl;dr feel free to give recommendations to someone who needs to occasionally read happy books and sorry

White Noise is funny but I wouldn't describe as happy lit

Gravity's Rainbow is what you're looking for, my man. I'm more often disappointed by literature not being gloomy enough, so I can't relate with you. But Gravity's Rainbow is a book about making light of serious situations and it gets damn funny at times.

Pynchon is a riot, that copypasta didn't stem from nothing.
