It's a cute book and movie. I loved it as a kid and I loved it just as much when I re-read and re-watched it as an adult.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lydia!

Weirdly, I haven't read the Rosie sequels. Not sure why not. Yes, Anne is definitely a memorable character!

I was really surprised when my husband picked up GREENLIGHTS (usually he reads dense non-fiction) and even more surprised by how much he loved it. Didn't see that coming at all.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Sam!

It is a great read aloud! My husband and I watched the movie at Christmastime and we were both dying. I'd forgotten how truly funny it is.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Carla!

So, the books and the tv show are actually really different from each other. Tempe has a totally different personality in the books and none of the characters in the show appear in the books. Interesting, right?

Thanks for stopping in, Andge!

LITTLE WOMEN is a great book for so many reasons! THE ROSIE PROJECT is also a great read. I hope you enjoy it when you get to it.

I actually put "laugh out loud" in the search bar on my blog because I seriously could not think of anything! This was a tough topic for some of us :)

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Lark!

I came close to not doing this topic because it was hard for me to think of anything. I do love Anne and Veronica Speedwell - both are funny characters in their own ways.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Katherine!

True! I definitely remember laughing out loud while reading picture books to my children, probably at least in part because THEY were laughing out loud. It's definitely fun to share that experience :)

Believe it or not, I've never read anything by Wodehouse. Nor Pratchett, but his humor seems a little too zany for me. I'm not sure I would really enjoy his books. Never say never, though.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, T!

Exactly! I tend to shy away from books that are purposely funny. I prefer a mix of serious and funny more than just funny/funny.

I actually just got A WALK IN THE WOODS today. I'm excited to read it, especially since I've never read Bryson before.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Cath!

Thank you! It was tough to put together, but I think it turned out okay :)

Thanks for stopping by, Ritz!

Right? I wonder why. It's a great book and it isn't that old. You'd think it would get more attention.

I want to listen to GREENLIGHTS on audio, too. I'm sure it will be a long wait for me as well. *Sigh*

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Leslie!

I haven't read the Rosie sequels for some reason. I really don't know why ...

My husband enjoyed GREENLIGHTS so much, I was surprised. I'm sure I'll like it as well as it just seems totally entertaining.

Thanks for stopping in, Lisa!

Aren't the Veronica Speedwell books fun? They always make me smile. And THE ROSIE PROJECT remains the only book (at least that I can remember) that has literally made me laugh out loud!

Thanks for coming by, Lisa!

Both LITTLE WOMEN and LITTLE MEN have some great funny scenes in them!

Tempe's sense of humor is what makes me chuckle in the Reichs books. Otherwise, they're really not funny at all.

Thanks for stopping by, Rachel!

Dick Van Dyke always makes me laugh :) Burt is my favorite Mary Poppins character by far.

Thanks for coming by, Maya!

Same here. I've long loved LITTLE WOMEN, so it's weird that I never bothered with the sequel before now. So far, LITTLE MEN isn't as charming, but it's still fun. I'm enjoying it.

Thanks for stopping in, Deb!

Yay! I adore LITTLE WOMEN. I listened to it on audio this year, which was fun. It's a loooonnnnggg listen, but a delightful one :) I hope you love it.

Thanks for coming by, Felicia!

That's the great thing about TTT - even when you can't think of anything for your list, lots of other people CAN. I've seen some great suggestions for funny reads this week.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Helen!

I've actually only read the first Anne book, although I've read it a number of times. It really is delightful! Montgomery loves to describe things, so it's not a fast read, but it is a really fun one. I love the movie adaptations starring Megan Follows, too.

Thanks for stopping in, Greg!

Same here. I definitely find funny characters and humorous lines in mysteries/thrillers, but I wouldn't describe the books themselves as funny.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Melody!

I can't believe it's taken me this long to read LITTLE MEN! Jo's my favorite character from LITTLE WOMEN and this is her continuing story, so it's a fun read so far.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Mystica!

I'm glad you mentioned LONESOME DOVE. I loved the book when I read it years ago, so I've been wanting to re-read it. I just bought a copy of it the other day. I'm excited to get started on my re-read.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Sam!

LITTLE MEN has been a good read so far. It's similar to LITTLE WOMEN in that it has no real plot - just scenes from life. It's entertaining, though. I hope you enjoy it if you get around to reading it!

Thanks for stopping in, Poinsettia!

The ultimate comfort reads for sure! I haven't re-read ANNE in a few years, so I might need to do that soon.

Thanks for coming by, Lex!

Definitely! All the books I've read by her have been light, funny, and entertaining. I definitely recommend them for when you just want a fun read.

Thanks, as always, for coming by and commenting, Deanna!

It's weird, actually, because the Temperance Brennan books and the show are actually completely different. Book Tempe has a totally different personality than tv Tempe and the secondary characters are all different. I'm not sure why the producers decided to change everything! I love the books, but I was never able to get into Bones for some reason. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the books.

Thanks for stopping by, Ruby Jo!

I do like a dash of humor in dark books - it provides a nice contrast, you know?

Thanks for coming by, Sammie!

I use them both over and over in TTT prompts! They fit so many of the topics.

Thanks for stopping in, JadeSky!

It really is, and touching too.
