If you want to be made to laugh, in a book with no nastiness, and that will nourish you, I think the perfect suggestion is Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next series.. it starts with "The Eyre Affair". They're almost beyond description *giggles* Set in an alternate 1980's England, where people have re-engineered Dodo's as pets, and William Shakespeare is the most popular name.. I've not met a person that didn't fall madly in love with these books! *g* I promise
I like reccomending the "No.1 Ladies' Detective Agency" series as *nice* books.. they're easy to read, short, and nothing nasty in them at all..
I'm sure you'll get some more great reccomendations!!
