The Perfect Book for Every Bad Mood and Upsetting Dilemma
We all have our trying times (or years). Here's the cure for what ails you. Read—and be restored.
By Liesl Schillinger
For when you need to cry it out
A very good way to shake yourself out of a blue mood is to immerse yourself in the blues of others. The ocean of emotions in Jojo Moyes' novel, Me Before You about a young woman who falls in love with the handsome, rich, angry young man she cares for—who has been paralyzed in a motorcycle accident—will buffet you with waves of cleansing, renewing tears. It's all right to be sad, the novel shows you: Strong emotions let us feel our common humanity.
