Well, there is Greenwood Press's Daily Life in ________ series. These are of variable quality, at least the ones I've looked at. One of the strengths is the narrow scope of their focus. Like, there is a "Daily Life during the Spanish Inquisition," "Daily Life in Renaissance Italy", AND "Daily Life in the Reformation"; "Daily Life during the Black Death", "Daily Life in Chaucer's England", AND "Daily Life in Medieval Europe." That specificity goes a long way towards defeating the tendency to be overly general in accounts of daily life.

That said, books like that still do a fair amount of smoothing over--they're definitely on the more pop end of things. (Honestly, though, I'd say if you're looking for a starting point for writing historical fiction, you could do a whole lot worse!)

For the later Middle Ages, and medieval England specifically, there are two fantastic books I would further suggest: Ian Mortimer's The Time Traveller's Guide to Fourteenth-Century England (also the later one to 16C/Tudor England) and, more scholarly, Barbara Hanawalt's The Ties That Bound, which is about peasant life.

Once you move into the 19th century, or even the 18th and mayyybe the 17th in some cases, reading primary sources--diaries especially--can offer some really fabulous insight. If you can get ahold of some of the Mormon women's accounts of westward travel (Utah, California, etc), they are really interesting and fun reading. And Samuel Pepys--pronounced 'peeps', legit--is a good time in so many ways.
