What are some good books?

I am going to Barnes and Noble this week (maybe today). I like sad books but I want to read a couple happy books. What would you recommend, from each kind?

1984 is the saddest of all books.

@fluteacorn After I finished it, I was suicidally depressed for a week or two. It is a rough read haha. Important, but god damn.

Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman. It's funny, sad, quirky, happy and an easy but well-written read.

Have you ever read The Phantom Tollbooth? :)

@fluteacorn Yeah? It's not spooky like that though. The whole book is plays on words and puns and it just makes you happy haha.

@thepreposterouspanda Definitely have to see if they have it then.

@fluteacorn Yup! You should also look for the Chronicles of Amber. That will keep you busy for at least a week haha.
