James Herriott's books are so heartwarming (although occasionally there's something terribly sad all of a sudden - but most are very happy stories).
Or if you like romances, Cotillion (Georgette Heyer) or Confessions of a Shopaholic (Sophie Kinsella) make me laugh every time. So, tbh, does Meg Cabot's Princess Diary series. They're so non-stressful to read, everything works out in the end, and they're just the sort of books a friend of mine describes as "delightful confections."

Please Don’t Sit on My Bed in Your Outside Clothes was absolutely joyful - but I listened to it as an audiobook. Not for prudes.
Anxious People was fun and enjoyable to read. |
| I recently read “Rise and Shine, Benedict Stone,” and it’s a sweet, positive book. I’ve been keeping it in mind as a good gift for someone in need of a pick-me-up. (In particular, there’s a storyline of people becoming inspired by certain gemstones and their supposed properties — X for courage, Y for healing, etc — so I thought I t would be cool as a theme gift along with a crystal or piece of stone jewelry chosen to add good wishes for whichever property is assigned to that stone.) |

Anthony Horowitz's detective series often make me laugh aloud - so that's feel good as far as I can assess
The word is murder the sentence is death A line to kill Magpie murders |
| I second the red for Anxious People - I loved all the characters. |
This is OP and this made me literally laugh out loud. Thanks! |
+1 I think a compilation of dcum threads with context would uplift many spirits

Early Morning Riser
anything by Fannie Flagg I've found romance novels to be pretty cheerful--Helen Hoang, Casey McQuiston, and Courtney Milan |
|
If you like dogs or horses or Paris, I highly recommend “Perestroika in Paris” by Jane Smiley.
Just a happy, sweet book. It’s like if Ted Lasso were a book (nothing similar subject-matter-wise, but because of the happy feeling it evoked in me)! |
Am i missing something? What's the context behind this? Np |
