Reader comment about ‘happy’ books

This comment is from a friend who has an Instagram blog entitled beckyonbooks. Check her out because she combines reading with phtography. It’s a nice combination of the finer things in life!!

I think we all look for lighter books at times and still we want some substance. I have enjoyed several of Elizabeth Berg’s books which seem to fit the criteria and Fanny Flagg’s books usually have a humorous take on small town life and problems. Often books about book shops and book clubs are heartwarming. The Storied Life of A. J. Fickery, The Last Bookshop in London, and The Jane Austen Book Club come to mind.
Although I have not read her books I enjoy checking out author Barbara Delinsky’s reviews at https://barbaradelinsky.com/book-review/ because she reads a variety of books including some lighter ones. I am interested in a recent recommendation The Brilliant Life of Eudora Honeysett. I seem to watch for books about “women of a certain age” these days.
