Rabid: A Cultural History of the World's Most Diabolical Virus - not so much about anger, but rabies has been associated with angry behavior historically. Plus it has red on the cover.

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan - a key theme of the book is woman regretting taking revenge for a slight that really wasn't there

Challenge complete!

I will probably read more qualifying books before the end of the quarter, but I'm so busy that I'm ready to stop tracking, and this seems like a good stopping point.

Thank you, Susan, for leading this challenge! 🥰🤗
