Laugh out loud funny

A book I'm reading right now has made me laugh out loud I don't even know how many times. Here's some of my favorites from this morning's reading...
"It must be hard to get up in the morning when you're that empathetic."

"Greta appeared out of nowhere, dropping a box of tissues on the table, handing each of us a smile, then wordlessly retreating back to the living room."
(I like the idea of handing a smile to each person in a room.)

Here's a classic from the chapter I read yesterday outside in the spring air:
"'I want to sue the city of Hastings, Hastings General Hospital, and Channel 8. Oh, and my ex-husband.'
Walter's eyebrows lifted. 'Your ex-husband? What did he do?'
'He's alive. I want you to sue him for not being dead yet.'"
