Obviously, they don't have to slide into the cozy genre. But what books do you cuddle up with during a thunderstorm, or your variable weather of choice? Personally, Becky Chambers has become one of my favorites. I also read LOTR when I need a "good guys doing the right thing just because it's the right thing to do".

It depends on what “Cozy” means. If I want to reread a familiar story I’ve read a million times before, it’s Raymond Feist’s Riftwar books or Jim Butcher’s Dresden Files.

If however we are going for low(er) stakes come out feeling good, it’s all about feeling relaxed and enjoying friendships, Legends & Lates or the Fred the Vampire Accountant series are fun. I enjoyed the This Quest is Bananas series too.
