My #happyreads are usually old Barbara Michaels books like this one, a blend of the 1970s gothic romances with a strong female lead. This one is a truly creepy story featuring a spiteful old woman holed up in her Virginia mansion, her granddaughter who reluctantly returns to said mansion to care for old woman, and a body that just won't stay buried. Maybe not "happy" but Michaels' books give me comfort when I don't want to think too much!
