1. D.E. (Dorothy Emily Stevenson
2. Lillian Beckwith
3. James Herriot
4. Patrick Taylor
5. Miss Read
6. Laurie Lee
7.Anya Seton
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Hi! If you're still looking for a comfort reading I would recommend you Angela Thirkell, P.G. Wodehouse, E.F. Benson, Barbara Pym, Nancy Mitford, E.M. Delafield and Stella Gibbons. :-)
I love many of these authors and am grateful to have a few more here to look into. I would add I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith, Georgette Heyer's Regency Novels especially Grand Sophy, Venetia, and Frederica, and if you want a little mystery, I like Patricia Wentworth.
Thanks Andrea, I love Heyer, but haven't read those titles... I will look up Patricia Wentworth as well.
