Johnny's Serendipity: Comedic Literature (An Attempt To Like Reading)

Since I need to develop an interest on reading, I've started to read books for pleasure. Obviously, I only read some related to contents that are alluring to me. I already read two cool books this month, nothing long, just a couple comedy ones. If anyone's interested on the topic, here's some thoughts:

First, a recent and acclaimed New York Times Best-Seller, "The Bedwetter" (2010), a memoir by comedian Sarah Silverman. Being a fan of her original stand-up comedy and irreverent tv series, this was a must-read. The jewish author's characteristic quirky humor was hilarious as always. It kept me laughing throught more than 250 pages. If you enjoy edgy jokes, puns and Sarah's top-notch punch-lines, this is the book for you. It also tells her biography and features tons of stories related to other renowned alternative comedians of the new wave. The photographic material was a visual form of artistic fun.

Finally, a masterpiece, "The Bro Code" (2008) by Neil Patrick Harris. Based on the character Barney Stinson from hit tv series "How I Met Your Mother", this is the bible for bros around the globe. Filled with the trademark humoristic style of the show's womanizer. It's as awesome and instructional as it gets! This great manual consists of a set of funny & honorable rules found in articles that had me cracking up non-stop. I got the chance to listen the voice of the author as I read every single page, since I was able to get the audiobook. So it was a very neat addition, a perfect complement, which made it the best reading experience I've had in my life. Truly essential if you're a fan of HIMYM, NPH or just happen to have bros. (Highly recommended, only 208 pages).
