I am a read to feel better type person too =)
I have a couple of suggestions:

The Four Agreements - by Don Miguel Ruiz
The Secret - Rhonda Byrne
You Can Heal Your Life - by Louise L Hay

There are sooo many others that I would recommend too... but these are a good start.

and since you're a mommy, I recommend (the best parenting compilation I have EVER come across)

"Let's Fix the Kids" - by James Jones

And one more thing... I found this "pearl" just the other day:
(I hope you enjoy)

Undisturbed calmness of mind is attained by
Cultivating friendliness toward those who are happy
Compassion for the unhappy
Delight in those who are honorable and
indifference toward the dishonorable.
~Patanjali

Feel better beautiful!
Blessings.

The Tale of Two Vikings by Sandra Hill is hilarious

Oprah would know. Try the chicken soup books

The Book Of Mormon

Try this book. It was an easy read and had some great pointers.

When am I going to be Happy? - by Penelope Russianoff

I'm not sure I can think of a book right offhand but you might want to start reading blogs. There are many "mommy blogs" that deal with the same kinds of issues you are talking about and are far from boring. You can interact with the author and get a dialogue going. Often, there will be a whole community of "mommy bloggers" who interact with each other regularly.

You might even consider starting a blog.

Here's one to get you started:

Follow the comment crumbs and you'll probably find several you can relate to....

Could you add more details? anger or moodiness can have many reasons why it happens. It could be you need vitamins and minerals, more sleep, that you are dealing with a lot of stress, that you are having personal problems that you are trying to face with a positive attitude but this is not getting you anywhere, that you need a vacation, that you need to set time aside for yourself, that you need to look for a support group, that you and your spouse need to make changes because you are overwhelmed with responsibility. Sometimes books are good, and sometimes books can actually make things worse. The reason is that if you are pushing yourself too hard, a book will add more load (with many good suggestions). If this is a problem you need to fix/handle, then a book is great. If it's just stress, then you need to love yourself, spoil youself a little or look for activities that can help you release that stress. Maybe a book about stress management can help you.

um instead of reading what about watching a comedy movie that you can rent and watch and i know a book that os sad but keeps you interested and reading this book is called Out of the Dust By Karen Hesse.this book is garunteed to keep you reading until you cant put the book down

I like a book called 'How to stop worrying and start living'. I haven't finished it, but what I have read so far has been both humorous and useful. The writer writes it also very naturally with almost talking language..

Have a look if it suits your personality.

Buddha said something like that : It isn't about being punished for anger, but BY anger. I know this might not really help. But suppressing anger isn't always a good solution either...

Rachel the writer of book Kitchen table wisdom experienced strong anger in her life, because everything wasn't fine with her, she had physical difficulties. But as she grew wiser, she realized that anger is the sign that you want to live. You are/something inside you is not giving up, even if something you think is wrong, that's why you are angry.

Okay so I know that this sounds really corny, but the Bible. It has turned my life around completely because I've let God take controll of my life instead of me trying to handle my problems because I do a pretty bad job handling them myself. This is a good version:

and this too:
http://www.amazon.com/NIV-Moms-Devotiona...
Hope this helps! :)
