I just realised I said British Museum instead of British Library. Oops.

Buy Three Men in a Boat at the Book Depository.

Jerome's Three Men in a Boat was a novel inspired by his honeymoon boat trip along Great Britain's River Thames. The book is part travel guide, part historical account from a humorous angle

Actually you were right the first time. The book does say 'the British Museum'. The British Library was in the British Museum then.

It's the part immediately after where he goes to see his doctor and the doctor writes him a prescription for beef dinners, ale, lots of exercise, and to stop filling his head with nonsense that he doesn't understand that makes that chapter.

Hahaha, I fell for it, too! But then I remembered there was a dog. And yesss, it reminded me of Oscar Wilde, too!

Thank you for your appreciative comments about "Three Men in a Boat" (and Montmorency). There is so much more of Jerome K. Jerome to read. Please try his "Diary of a Pilgrimage." You'll find more hilarity therein.

Comparing this book to The Importance of Being Earnest = easiest way to make me bump this up on my TBR

Well, there’s a small reading competition at our school and we will be questioned about each and every details of this story and the winner will be opted. I hope I’ll be the one who is the winner😇 i was also very much interested in this story reading the first chapter itself. Since it’s satirist and full of humor, no one find it boring)

I'm trying to figure out which book to take overseas for the course of my travels, something like young adult fiction, but not such an easy read, any recommendations?

A humorous read, available as a free Kindle download on Amazon. But you don't need to read 100 pages to find out that Montmorency is a dog. Only 10-20 pages in the author mentions that Montmorency came to life in the form of a fox terrier.

If you haven't read To Say Nothing of the Dog by Connie Willis, do it. Read it now! It's so hilarious and awesome and has time travel. Need I say more? XD

very hilarious n teaches you a lesson in a healthy comic way... the wittiness in the writing style keeps a constant smile on your face... the ridiculous situations that they land on described with british humor makes u giggle out loud !!
