I've just started reading the Liaden books, and they are very good, but so far not very fluffy. For instance, in Scout's Progress one of the main themes is escaping from years of emotional and physical abuse. A lot more like Bujold than Woodehouse.
Some more suggestions
Justine Larbalestier's "How to ditch your fairy" is funny and cute.
Larbalestier and Sarah Rees Brennan's "Team Human" is also funny, but there are some medical issues (involving vampires and zombies) which may cause it to be a bad fit for you now.
Patricia Wrede's "A Matter of Magic" (= "Magician's ward" + "A matter of magic") has evil plots, dastardly noblemen and shots in the night, but is still pretty light hearted.
Wrede and Stevermer's "Sorcery and Cecilia" is similar in style (evil magical plots which almost succeed, but not very dark).
If you haven't read Austen yet, "Northanger Abbey" is fluffy and funny. (But "Mansfield park" might be too dark.)
