Forgetting the stress of everyday life, not having to-do lists in your head all the time, not noticing what’s going on around you for a moment, beaming away in your mind for a moment – the dream. And this is best achieved with a good novel. Even better with a good and funny novel. Here is our best of for funny books:
Mindful murder, Karsten Dusse
A successful lawyer is forced by his wife to attend a mindfulness seminar in order to correct their marital imbalance. In the course, he then learns to face up to his problems – and solve them. When a client begins to make his life difficult, the solution is obvious … A reading pleasure for crime fans and all those who love black humor.

There was never any talk of fun, Ellen Berg
A mother in her forties who breaks out of the daily grind, leaving her husband, children and terraced house behind in order to feel herself again. She travels to Mallorca and Bali, but basically it is a journey to herself. Entertaining, authentic, easy to read – and wonderfully amusing.

Over My Dead Body, Maz Evans

What’s up, Annegret? – Franka Bloom
In old age, widow Annegret gets to know the adventurous side of life once again. When she moves with her granddaughter Isi from the provinces to a shared flat in Berlin-Kreuzberg, a new world opens up to her: veganism, LGBTQ, containerization, gendering – and Grandma Annegret is right in the middle of it all. And even falls in love again… The book tells in a witty and clever way what the old can learn from the young – and vice versa.

And before Richard knows it, he is in the middle of solving the case.
Rowohlt, 14,00 Euro
Iowa – Stefanie Sargnagel

You’d have to – do nothing and still be happy, Tommy Jaud
A book full of feel-good stories from everyday life – about the red tear-off thread from the prince’s roll (which is never there when you need it), the fight for valuable Payback points and urgent doctor’s appointments. Just as you would expect from Jaud: Biting and hilarious.
