If you are ever looking for some light and fun (and very funny) reading then The Island of Heavenly Daze is a good place to start. It is the first book in a five book series covering the often hilarious antics of the residents of the very small island called Heavenly Daze. At many points the book is side-splittingly funny.

Heavenly Daze focuses on the pastor of the town, Winslow Wickam. In honor of his service with the community the church presents him with a unique gift that causes him to see himself in a different light. Armed with his new perspective he uncovers a secret plot by the church ladies to replace him with a newer, younger, more vibrant pastor. To protect himself he begins his own campaign to prove to the church that he is the best pastor they could ever have. Needless to say, it doesn't turn out quite like he had planned.

Generally speaking this isn't the sort of book I would read just for the fun of it. In terms of fiction my tastes tend to be more for fantasy, science fiction, mystery, or adventure. I'm not sure what genre this would fall into. However, my wife started reading it and recommended it to me just because it was so funny. I loved it. Sometimes it's hard to fine a book that is fun and interesting for both my wife and I but this is one of the series of books that we can read together and both really enjoy.
