What ethnic fiction|nonfic comedy books do you want to see film adapted?

If you love the 1st MBFGW film, what compelling fiction or non-fiction ethnic comedy themed book/s you've read so far (with similar, or even more interesting characters or themes, in your opinion), would you like seeing made into a film.

That'd be because you reckon its character/s and story is just as good as, or even more compelling to you than MBFGW. Please elaborate on the book's story and author.
