Where to Watch This Is Not Happening - Mark Normand

A raw, darkly funny, and deeply moving portrait of a comedian’s life on the edge. Following the chaotic journey of washed-up stand-up Billy Ray Schafer, Tallent’s debut novel dives into the highs and lows of the comedy circuit with brutal honesty and sharp wit. A must-read for anyone fascinated by the gritty reality behind the spotlight.

Stanhope’s No Encore for the Donkey is an unfiltered, gut-wrenching, and wickedly funny chronicle of a year filled with personal upheaval and self-discovery. With his signature mix of brutal honesty and sardonic humor, Stanhope turns his pain into biting comedy gold. A must-read for fans of his fearless storytelling.

Steven Wright’s Harold is a brilliantly surreal and hilarious dive into the mind of a 1960s third grader. This is one of my all-time favorite books, and the audiobook is a must-listen with Wright’s perfect delivery.
