Good Omens-Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett
It's about the end of the world!. An angel and a demon live on Earth, and they are trying to prevent the end of it because they like their situation!. It's hilarious!. I don't do it often, and I actually laughed out loud reading it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
a clockwork orange - anthony burgess
it's not super hysterical, but it's got quite a lot of dark humor in it, and it's really interesting!. :]]
but note that it's quite short (140 pages) and it is full of words taken from russian but written in english, and my edition of the book didn't come with a glossary!. it was okay because i speak russian so i could figure it out, but if you're buying it you should probably check if there's a list of the words or footnotes or something like that!.
woo sorry for the essay!. happy reading!. :DWww@QuestionHome@Com

Christina C! I read those two books for English class! Of Mice and Men and The Pearl! Those are both sad books! And really short!. You could finish both easily in a day!. Funny books!?
