Escapist page turners for hospital stay

Hi everyone!

In a few months time I'll get surgery and will have to spend a lot of time doing very little physically – so I'm looking for good escapist page turners.

They shouldn't be too highbrow since I might be a little out of it from the medication but also not totally mindless.

No grimdark, pregnancy, rape or miscommunication tropes and nothing too militaristic please. I'd also prefer if the author described women as actual people (unlike Kingkiller Chronicles or Dresden files…).

I was thinking of sci-fi/fantasy but am open to other genres (except horror).

From those genres I enjoyed:

Terry Pratchett & Douglas Adams, the Hobbit, Children of Time, Mistborn, Interview with the Vampire, Steven Brust, Rivers of London, Leigh Bardugo, Elantris, A Dark and Secret Magic, Piranesi, Strength of the few, Bury our bones in the midnight soil, Ted Chiang…

I more or less enjoyed:

Acotar, Lord of the rings, the Witcher, Song of Ice and fire, Babel, the Three Body Problem…

I did not enjoy:

Fourth Wing, Crescent City, Heavenly Bodies, From blood and ash, Dresden Files, Kingkiller Chronicles, the Magicians…
