Ive been feeling pretty down and depressed lately from a major amount of stress from work, bills, and the general state of the world. I love playing Stardew Valley and AC:NH, but I haven’t had much time lately to play either because of work and other obligations.
Typically, I try to read a chapter or two at night before bed to help wind down, and if I had a book that was cozy and happy like either of those games, I feel like it would help my mental health and make me just a tiny bit more happy.
Are there any low stakes books like those games that are full length (and not short stories)? A book that captures the magic of either of those games would be great!

All creatures great and small series !
The Howl’s Moving Castle books by D.W.J. have decently high stakes, but never in a way that are stressful to the reader, so they always make me feel cozy.
Maybe something like Heidi or other classics of that time period may interest you?
