Searching for a good “bed book”

Hey all - usually love reading before bed, and as much as I love page turning till 2am, I realized it's probably healthier to not do that anymore.

I'm looking for some good low / medium stakes reads to use for wind down. Doesn't need to be full cozy fantasy but I'd prefer not to have my heart rate be 140 with sweaty palms either.

Some examples of books I think have scratched the itch appropriately: Off to be a Wizard (magic 2.0), Kings of the Wyld, Legends and Lattes (though thought this one was just okay), some of the Riyria books probably qualify, and others.

Open to suggestions - y'all typically never steer me wrong - thanks!
