Books: looking for the well-written yet light subject matter

Anonymous
After you’ve read all Liane Moriarty and Jojo Moyes. Not Nora Roberts (tho the romance genre is fine).

I don't know who those are, but I'm reading Graham Norton's first fiction book, and finding it very light. It's about finding bones in a sleepy Irish village.

It moves along gently, and I feel like it's the book version of meditating.

Jennifer Cruise is really light. But well written.

Don't knock these titles..they sound ridiculous but I enjoyed the heck out of them..

There's a series of books by Meg Cabot featuring a retired pop singer named Heather Wells who now works in a residence hall at a college. They are "mysteries" but it's fluff and sort of silly. I always cracked up while reading them.

The titles of the series in order:

Size 12 is Not Fat
Size 14 Is Not Fat Either
Big Boned
Size 12 and Ready to Rock
The Bride Wore Size 12
