Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
This week’s prompt is very different and it’s very exciting to try out a prompt that challenges me differently! I also feel like this prompt is gearing me up for April Fool’s Day, which makes sense right? Laughs and jokes are all part of the age-old tradition! Here is my list of funny book titles for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday:
- Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch by Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman
- The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and Other Clinical Tales by Oliver Sacks
- The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams
- Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick
- The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie
- Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs by Judi Barrett & Ron Barrett
- Dumb White Husbands vs. Zombies: The Zomnibus by Benjamin Wallace
- The Name of This Book Is Secret by Pseudonymous Bosch & Gilbert Ford
- Horton Hears a Who! by Dr. Seuss
- Fun Home: A Family Tragicomic by Alison Bechdel
This list was hard! Why is it so hard to find books with hilarious titles??? I’ve got mostly amusing titles, I would say, rather than funny. But here we are! I’m so curious about what titles people will come up with because of how tough it is to narrow them down!
Did you guys complete this week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt too? Leave a comment below and I’ll make sure to check out your fun collection!

The Man Who Mistook His Wife For Hat is one I’ve seen already today and I’m still confused as to HOW? Or am I taking it far too literally?
My TTT: https://jjbookblog.wordpress.com/2021/03/23/top-ten-tuesday-308/
Hah! Oliver Sachs made my list as well. Dick’s novel was a contender but didn’t quite make it. Fun ones! 🙂
Haha! Thanks for stopping by and happy reading!
That’s why I’ve wanted to read it for so long! 😂
🙂
Great choices! I’ve always liked the title of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. It’s so wonderfully creative. And The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat has me so intrigued!! 😉
Glad you liked my picks! 😁
You picked some really fun titles this week! Thanks for visiting my TTT. 🙂 The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and Other Clinical Tales is one I’ve never heard of, but that’s a great title! I’m intrigued!
Thanks Jana! Glad you liked them! 😁
Dumb White Husbands vs. Zombies is one of the funniest book titles I’ve ever heard. I love it!
IKR!!! I really wanna read it too! 😂😂😂
You’ve got some great titles on this list! I hadn’t even thought of Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?, but I really love that title. I’m super curious about Dumb White Husbands vs. Zombies: The Zomnibus now and I might just need to buy it for my (erm … totally not dumb *cough*) white husband as a gag gift for his birthday. xD
Haha! Yeah I’m particularly proud of those two picks! 😂
