Love and 120 Trite Titles

A story in Publisher’s Weekly mentioned that a poet named Sabrina Benaim is about to release her first book of poetry (good for her)…and it’s to be titled Depression and Other Magic Tricks.
I groaned. That’s practically a parody of a literary title: [Big General Noun] and Other [Ironically Contrasting Noun]s. And it got me thinking: How many books could I find on Amazon using just the pattern “Love and Other X”?
The answer is 120. Here they all are, alphabetized roughly by the thing that Love is compared to. (So many Disasters, Distractions, and Lies!) Can we all stop doing this now? Please?
