Do any of you guys know any good comedic books

I am not talking about those written by some comedian.

I mean a book like Catch 22, literature/fiction/novel but with comedic elements to it

Finally finished Oathbringer by Brandon Sanderson. Book was dense as fukk but worth the read. I was skeptical at first but Brandon is definitely the leader of this generation of fantasy authors. His magic systems are always logical and fresh.

If you like crime fiction breh, google Chris Ryan and Andy Greenwald podcast The Watch. Those dudes are obsessed with crime fiction novels. I know they recommend a lot of Elmore Leonard books.
