Cow miscarriages will never more foundational than urethral crayons. Manhood Perfectly Restored is an important treatise on health in America today. (For those values of "today" that happened over 125 years ago, of course.)

I would really love a month for "OMG I cannot believe someone published this book and please we should all read it and boggle together," but I suspect that (1) it'd be hard to find a category name and (2) not enough other people would enjoy the game.
