Librarians Recommend: Comfort Reads (For Wildly Different Comfort Needs) - Page 2

When you're in the mood for stories that can offer an escape, there's nothing quite like a comfort read. I polled some librarian friends for their favorites, added a few of mine, and gave all of us free reign on how to interpret "comfort." So we've got a list with everything from cozy to fierce to righteous to reflective. It's a great place to start when you're having a less than great day.
