Last night I downloaded a very funny sample from Amazon. Interesting that we have not one but two Christopher Moore books in the running this month.
So now I'm torn between
The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde and the two Christopher Moore books,
Fool and
Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal.
Among the ones I've read,
Topper by Thorne Smith blows me away,
My man Jeeves by P G Wodehouse is always enjoyable,
Candide by Voltaire is thought-provoking (I've read it three times, I believe), and
A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court by Mark Twain is not as enjoyable as I expected.
I'm now leaning toward
Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal.
