My favorite title from today's trip to the Lily library:

The true and affecting history of Henrietta Belgrave : woman born only for calamities, being an unhappy daughter, a wretched wife, and an unfortunate mother : containing a series of the most uncommon adventures that ever befel[!] one person, by sea and land; particularly the shipwreck of herself and parents, her falling into the power of a brutal villain, her timely rescue by a party of Indian hunters, and her further sufferings, to her death

Now that's a book.
