I love literature as much as the next person but sometimes I want to just shut my brain off and immerse myself in a simple engaging story. Any suggestions?

These might be too young for your taste, but ones I still go back to as engaging, comfort reads are The Enchanted Forest Chronicles by Patricia Wrede and Mandy by Julie Andrews Edwards.
Honestly with what I have had to deal with today I’m more than OK with a story aimed at younger readers. I really need some child like whimsy in my life right now
I just read the land of ingary trilogy by Diana Wynne Jones. Starts with Howl’s Moving Castle (the Miyazaki film is somewhat loosely based on the novel). All three books were fun and sweet and definitely fit the bill for childlike whimsy.
