I'm finishing the Stormlight Archive series right now and I think I need something with a bit less of the murder / war / violence aspect that many fantasy books have.

Does anyone know some (not necessarily fantasy) fiction books that are less 'depressing' and are easy to read?

The house in the cerulean sea

The Spellshop

The long way to a small, angry planet

They all make me feel warm and happy when everything else is too much!

Anything by Becky Chambers is guaranteed to make you smile, and I'd also like to mention the Murderbot Diaries, they are fantastic
