What’s the lightest, most “fluff” kind of book you’ve read recently?
Probably the fluffiest book I've read recently was Farahad Zama's The Marriage Bureau for Rich People. I enjoyed the book a lot, but this book was actually the reason I came up with a new rating to add to my scheme- Beach. A well-crafted summer read, it's sweet as taffy and light as cotton candy.

I didn't realise, it is fluff!
Booking through recent fluff
That sounds like something I'd definitely be interested in!
I'm in the mood for a book just like that right now!
I absolutely LOVE stories taking place in India! I am definately adding this to my TBR pile!
Love todays BTT!
I love your new rating category!
I remember putting this on my wish list after reading your review. I love books that deal with India, so this is a must read. Glad to hear it was a light and fluffy read, that's just what I'm looking for at the moment!
I have given you an award!
Come by and see. :)

My latest fluffy read is House and Home by Kathleen McCleary. I'm reading it right now. It's good, but lightweight.
I've seen this book around (and thought it looked a little "beachy"), so I've been avoiding picking it up. I tend to steer clear of "beach reads" (until I go on a big binge and consume like ten in one week of vacation). I think putting them into the category of "guilty pleasure" is like a self-fulfilling prophecy... maybe if I didn't avoid them for so long, if they were a more regular part of my literary diet, then I wouldn't feel so guilty about reading them.
haha the title sounds so cheezy...as cheezy as my chosen book :)
You really don't strike me as a reader of fluff :)
Mine's HERE
Ha! Just the cover alone looks fluffy! :)
Fluff to me is something that I don’t have to pause and scribble notes for. So that includes a light travelogue (not not much of historical note), chick lit, and comfort read. In my answer, I picked The Jane Austen Book Club because it was a quick read and comforting. Some readers might find a fluff read being compromising in its writing, but not necessarily. Fluff reads can be great for a drab, gloomy afternoon on a weekend.
