Funny novels told through diaries and letters
Diaries, letters and messages let characters tell a story in their own words, including the excuses they make for themselves. Comedy can grow from a private confession, an ill-judged message or a narrator who records an embarrassing mistake without quite understanding it.

How we choose booksFinding your way around this shelf
Consider the voice as well as the format. A diary keeps you close to one person's habits and worries, while an exchange of letters can reveal several competing accounts. Check the profile for the kind of humor and the place these documents have in the story, especially if you prefer short entries or a continuous narrative.
Humor is personal. Our labels describe supported traits, not a promise that every reader will find the same things funny. How we classify books.
