I need a book to read. Does anybody know of a really nice happy book that you could tell me of?

Cold Comfort Farm by Stella Gibbons

[lissyl78]

Don Quixote by Cervantes or if you want something shorter, Love in the time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez x

[Cetti]

'Under the Greenwood Tree' by Thomas Hardy is a lovely sunny book, but the one I read at least once a year is 'My Family and Other Animals' by Gerald Durrell.

[Aschenbach]

Winnie the Pooh

[Drusilla]

To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee always lifts me. I think its the girl narrators upbeat appeal rather than the content that makes me feel good.

I have to agree with Cetti, "my family and other animals" by Gerald Durrell is my all time favourite book!!!

The alchemist, Life of pi, Jonathan livingston seagull.

the alchemist and ...seagull are very short, life of pi is normal length novel but with an exceptionally uplifting ending.
