Mood-boosting Books - chosen by young adults

Mood-boosting Books is a reading and health programme that provides recommended reading to boost mood and support wellbeing and includes books chosen by readers that are feel-good and uplifting.  

As part of the National Year of Reading 2026, and developed in partnership with The Booksellers Association, a new Mood-boosting Books collection has been chosen by young adults (18-25) to be enjoyed by adults of all ages (18+).  

The collection will launch on 10 October 2026 for World Mental Health Day. 

 

Free print materials for libraries 

To support delivery of the collection, library authorities can claim a pack of free print materials. There are English packs and Bilingual (Welsh/English) packs available. 

Each pack contains: 

  • 10 A4 posters (portrait) 

  • 200 bookmarks 

Library authorities can each claim up to a maximum of 5 free packs to be delivered to a single UK mainland address.  

*To guarantee delivery before 10 October 2026, orders must be placed by 4 September 2026* 

Please note, materials are limited and available on a first come first served basis.
