I don't know about its lighthearted-ness, but Cay's texts are usually pretty decent and somewhat 'friendly'. There is Core Java for the Impatient covering Java 8 as well as a newer version that covers Java 9.
I've heard good things about "Core Java for the Impatient", also by Horstmann. It's still not as concise as K&R, but it seems to be as close to it as you're going to get while still up to date with Java 8.
