New idea for Mood buffs with Writing

Question

My husband came up with what I thought was a really good idea, since Stylists can add a mood buff onto outfits, it would be cool if a writer could attach a buff to the books they write.  If a sim was reading a good mystery or scary book, it would be cool to give them a scared buff or a paranoid one even if the book was good.  There are is a lot of potential with buffs to reading books.

In my mind it's not too dissimilar to the way tv shows and movies work in the sims, how a romantic film can make sims feel flirty. I think this would be a nice addition to the game, books can certainly make you feel certain emotions and this would be a nice way to enjoy books a bit more in the sims.

Wouldn't EA need to add new emotions for that? Scared or paranoid buffs won't fit to any of the base game emotions.

Those are just suggestions, but they could use the ones already in game too if not able to add the others, just some ideas :)

@smurfy77, writers already can write emotional books.  Granted, it's a specific book type rather than attaching to a different genre, but you get to pick the title so you can title it to fit any genre you choose.
