1001 Books for Every Mood - Page 13

From the 2008 book by Hallie Ephron. There are 1,001 book suggestions for 79 categories and moods, including "For a Good Laugh," "For a Wallow in a Slough of Despond," "To Behave," "To Misbehave," "For Thrills," "For Chills," "To Be Afraid, Very Afraid," "For Heartbreak," "For Heartburn," "To Indulge Your Senses," "For a Shot in the Arm," "For a Kick in the Pants," and "To Revel in Words."
N.B.: for #664, "A Hole is to Dig" is the title given in the book, but the plot described is of another Maurice Sendak book, "Higglety Pigglety Pop! or, There Must Be More to Life" (1967). It's her bad for the mistake, and my bad for not checking. Check it off if you've read the latter.
