For pleasure reading I like things that are lightweight and have happy endings. For comparison, I've enjoyed some Jodi Picoult but some were so intense I couldn't finish them. My favorite authors are:

Nora Roberts - Well written, somewhat predictable romances, many include some magic or "white" witchcraft.
J.D. Robb (aka Nora Roberts) - Murder mysteries featuring the same characters, set in the future.
Laurie King - The Mary Russell books: she's apprentice/partner to a retired Sherlock Holmes. I don't like traditional Holmes but do like this version of the character.
Diana Gabaldon - Outlander series. I like the characters, but some sections are too graphic so I skip those. Be warned, they're HUGE books.
Phillipa Gregory - Historical fiction set in 16-17th century Europe, mostly England. Well researched and she discloses what liberties she's taken with history.
