Sue Townsend has written a whole series of Adrian Mole diaries. They've been around for years, but I've only just read one of them, namely The Prostrate Years. Hmmmm, very light-hearted, but it's quite amazing how a mixture of ordinariness, serious issues and the bizarre can actually be made to be humorous against a background of events occurring in the wider world.
That said, a little bit of it goes quite a long way, and while I'll possibly read other books in the series if I come across them, I don't think I'll be actively seeking them out!
