It’s a very easy read, but I loved reading the Spud series by John van de Ruit growing up.
Also, the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy. It’s a trilogy in 5 parts.

Cannery Row by Steinbeck is pretty hilarious.

The Glass Castle. By Jeanette Walls. You wouldn’t think so, but it has its moments. Also Janet Evonovich books.

Almost every single Discworld novel. I have to make sure to not listen to any of the audiobooks while driving, unless I am prepared to pull off to the side of the road to wait for the case of the giggles that hearing things like a Dwarf named Bjorn dies, and when Death comes to collect him, asks him about his belief system. When Bjorn says that he thinks he’ll be reincarnated, death responds. “SINCE YOU BELIEVE IN REINCARNATION, YOU’LL BE BJORN AGAIN” (death speaks in all caps)

Ilona Andrews Innkeeper Chronicles –A magic Inn, space werewolves and vampires, a lot of really unique aliens, mystery, romance, action, a fun and humorous series
Jana DeLeon Miss Fortune series and Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich are both laugh out loud light mysteries.

When I was in middle/high school, I belly laughed reading Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging and the rest of the series. I’m considering going back and rereading it.

It’s a road trip fantasy story, not intentionally written to be a comedy, but it has so many funny and heartwarming moments.

Angela’s Ashes. That book had me absolutely ROARING with laughter…. but my bookclub turned against me, clutching their pearls and telling me I was an awful person for laughing at a story of such poverty.

Camino Royale by “Ross O’Carroll-Kelly” was hilarious. I usually read in bed last thing before sleep, and I woke my husband several times bursting with laughter at this. It is about the 17th of the RO’CK books, but a real return to form I thought.

Christopher Moore’s books – Fluke is probably my favorite of his, but most people, especially on Reddit, like Lamb the best. And if you like him, his work is definitely inspired by Tom Robbins before him. Still Life with Woodpecker is one of my favorite books of all time.
