I love literature as much as the next person but sometimes I want to just shut my brain off and immerse myself in a simple engaging story. Any suggestions?

These might be too young for your taste, but ones I still go back to as engaging, comfort reads are The Enchanted Forest Chronicles by Patricia Wrede and Mandy by Julie Andrews Edwards.

Honestly with what I have had to deal with today I’m more than OK with a story aimed at younger readers. I really need some child like whimsy in my life right now
