I'll have a look for those two Ann, I came back from the library with a ghost story, a mystery, and a non fiction about the coldest British winters lol.

Thought you might have Rose. can't help you any more then, looking at most of my books not a cheery lot I'm afrais, plenty oif historical novels. Oh just spotted another one on the shelf that says it is laugh aloud funny.

Woman on the Bus by Pauline McLynn, again I have not read it, no doubt if you look at Amazon somebody will have written a comment on it.

Ann I have read ALL of Bill Bryson's books lol, I have some of them and re-read often, they always make me laugh, especially the chapter on Porthmadog and Blaenau Ffestiniog in 'Notes from a Small Island' I was living nearby when I first read it and lay in bed heaving with silent laughter trying not to wake anyone :-D

Rose I have not read this one but it is on my bookshelf waiting to be read. It is by Catherine Alliott and is called Rosie Meadows regrets.

As I say I haven't read it but it says on the cover irrisistible, romantic and seriously funny. Could be ok I suppose.

Have you read any of the Bill Bryson books? they always make me laugh.

which are 'amusing' ? Just got back from the library which is small, but well stocked, but there seem to be so many 'rags to rags' novels set in 19thC slums, or war time tales full of bombs, babies, and seperations, or family sagas full of marriages,, divorces and hateful teenagers ;-)

But seemed to be a real shortage of 'something to make you laugh, or at least smile :-) I want to read something to cheer me up!
