The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13¾
by
Sue Townsend
The problem is, I haven't *read* this book. I was mostly listening to a friend reading it aloud.
I took part in a special summer camp doing voluntary ecological work in a forest. In the evenings, when we grew tired of singing folk songs with a guitar around the camp-fire, we have read the book together. Many people there already knew the book so they were laughing even before we got to the funniest part of each story. In such setting it is very easy to find the book uproariously hilarious.
