Obviously, they don't have to slide into the cozy genre. But what books do you cuddle up with during a thunderstorm, or your variable weather of choice? Personally, Becky Chambers has become one of my favorites. I also read LOTR when I need a "good guys doing the right thing just because it's the right thing to do".

Usually either Terry Pratchett if I'm in a more upbeat mood (Discworld only, as I haven't read any of his other books... yet. One day I'll broaden my horizons), or China Mieville otherwise (especially The City & the City).

His Johny series is my cozy go to. But, Trucker, Diggers and Wings is sitting in front of a fire, under a fluffy blanket and sipping hot chocolate with a hint of cinnamon and a touch of cayenne.
