Post-Election Feel-Good and Feel-Bad Books for Either Mood

The Guardian reports that “Books about democracy, dystopia, tyranny, feminism and far-right politics rapidly climbed bestseller charts in the wake of Donald Trump winning the US presidential election,” led by The Handmaid’s Tale.

Forbes notes, “Donald Trump’s reelection has appeared to boost memoirs from Melania Trump and Vice Presidential pick J.D. Vance on bestseller lists, while also lifting sales of dystopian classics like Margaret Atwood’s ‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ and George Orwell’s ‘1984,’ continuing a trend observed during Trump’s first presidency.”

If you’re not in the mood for political tomes or dystopia, check out Book Riot’s “8 Books About Transgender Characters With a Happily Ever After.”
