Good story and plenty of humour - but subtle and laid back in typical Baddiel style.
High FidelityHigh Fidelity by Nick Hornby
Buy new: £4.97 / Used from: £0.01
If you stopped reading Hornby's books after the lame "Fever Pitch" then you're missing out, this book (better than the film) is hilarious and totally addictive.
Turning ThirtyTurning Thirty by Mike Gayle

Like "Legendary Girlfreind", Mike Gayle again makes a main character easy to relate to, maybe the funniest of his four books.
About a BoyAbout a Boy by Nick Hornby
Buy new: £5.23 / Used from: £0.01
If you've seen the film dont be put off reading this as the film changed a quite a lot of the story - mainly the end. Again with Hornby, the book totally out-does the film.
Rancid AluminiumRancid Aluminium by James Hawes
Buy used from: £0.01
Wierd story and sometimes confusing, but enough humour and plot to keep you hooked. Not like the film it was later made in to!
