I laughed a lot with Stephen King's On Writing. Believe it or not, he can be funny!<br /><br />I will DEFINITELY be looking out for Sex Lives of Cannibals, now that you've mentioned it.

In his book on China, he mentions that having been at the "ends of the world," there are two things he always finds--Mormon missionaries and Chinese businessmen. <br /><br />Ed, the dangers of reading a funny book in bed!
