I think you're being a tad bit generous my friend.

Wait. He metamorphoses...again?

Wit's parts in the Stormlight Archive made me laugh usually

Just so you know, you get weird looks if you laugh while reading a book

they're not that funny

Not sure why you'd feel the need to point out you're not speaking ironically. Every chapter has at least a chuckle or two.

Gravity's Rainbow or Catch-22

Portnoy's Complaint made me laugh a lot when I read it 9 or so years ago. Not sure if it'd be as funny on a reread, though.

American Psycho

They're looking at you funny because you have the gall to read Sanderson in public, friend.

HE'S A GOOD AUTHOR FUCK YOU REEEEERRR

A Confederacy of Dunces was funny as fuck for me but that was years ago

>>9962973
A Confederacy of Dunces was one of the few books that got me to laugh aloud multiple times while reading. Another would be Catch-22.

I also found Moby Dick pretty funny in some places but it may have been the fact that I read it all sleep-deprived in one sitting.

"Good grief. Is this smut supposed to be comedy?" Ignatius demanded in the darkness. "I have not laughed once. My eyes can hardly believe this highly discolored garbage. That woman must be lashed until she drops. She is undermining our civilization. […] Please! Someone with some decency get to the fuse box. Hundreds of people in this theater are being demoralized."

Anything from Dostoyevsky

Inherent Vice is quite chuckle-worthy.

Surprised no one said IJ. There was a belly laugh from me every 20 pages or so.

Everything by PG Wodehouse.

>He had the look of one who had drunk the cup of life and found a dead beetle at the bottom.

>I'm not absolutely certain of the facts, but I rather fancy it's Shakespeare who says that it's always just when a fellow is feeling particularly braced with things in general that Fate sneaks up behind him with the bit of lead piping

>She looked as if she had been poured into her clothes and had forgotten to say "when".

Fuck you, Ishmael and Queequeg's pseudo-gay relationship is hilarious to the modern reader.
