I really like the beginning of FotR, it's all happy(ish) I get quite sad when they leave the Shire. You could try the Silmarillion but I found that I ended up listening to the radio (I can't stand silence while I'm reading) while my eyes scanned the page, then suddenly realising when it came to turning the page I hadn't actaully read any of it.
