I have a friend who is going to be in hospital for some time and is very down. I am looking for recommendations of happy, uplifting books, nothing heavy as I think concentration is probably not the greatest.

Stephen Fry says he reads Georgette Heyer when he's poorly. I read her when I'm down or can't concentrate on the worthy tomes I normally buy but never read read.

How about a bundle of Katie Fforde's novels? Lovely light romances with a happy ending. Bound to make your friend feel happier. I like to read them when I'm feeling a bit low, and they cheer me up.
