Thrillers are good but how about comedy???
I love thrillers really much, really! But I love laughing too. One time, I started to read "The diary of the princess" or something... Allright, I didi not understand much but I think I can know what is "funny" and what is "boring"... Anyone knows real comedy-books???

I loved "The Princess Bride" by William Goldman. The movie they made out of is was great, but the books was, of course, better.

I've never had the pleasure of enjoying it in Voltaire's original French, but I loved "Candide".

We could probably do better if you'd like to tell us more about your sense of humor. Comedy is always so hard to pick for other people. Especially when you don't know them.
