3. Insane City, by Dave Barry

Seth Weinstein is en route to his destination wedding in Miami, Florida, where, to his astonishment, he is about to marry a woman out of his league in every way. Of course, nothing is smooth sailing, as he soon becomes embroiled with desperate Haitian refugees, a stripper with a heart of a gold, a pimp the size of the Death Star, an eleven-foot albino Burmese python named Blossom, and an orangutan named Trevor (and, oh yes, the bride, who cares about many causes, her parents, who can't stand him, and his parents, who eat marijuana brownies).

Classic Dave Barry -- absolutely hilarious (along with some very dark moments).


"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”
