Top Ten Tuesday
This post started out as today’s suggested Top Ten Tuesday topic – Books That Make Me Laugh Out Loud – but my spotty tags (on LibraryThing and my blog posts) didn’t give me good enough stats to go by. So rather than trying to name specific books, I’m listing my top ten favorite authors who reliably make me laugh out loud – usually with their dialogue, but I’m including a couple of nonfiction authors, too. These are just the first ten who came to mind; I’m sure I could come up with others!
I’ve listed them in alphabetical order by last name. Links go to the authors’ Web sites, if you’d like to know more about their books.
M.C. Beaton (particularly the Agatha Raisin books)
Jasmine Guillory
Kevin Hearne
Gill Hornby (no author Web site)
A.J. Jacobs
Ann Leary
Elinor Lipman
Lisa Lutz (particularly The Spellman books)
G. M. Malliet
David Sedaris
I’m sharing this with Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. If you’re looking for books that will make you laugh, check out the other Top Ten book lists there!
