Eugenia (Genie In A Book) What other books other than this one have made you cry?


Jessica I absolutely loved How It Ends by Laura Wiess and have read the book several times but it never fails to make me cry. A couple of other tearjerkers I loved include; The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson
Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver
Forgotten by Cat Patrick - This wasn't a complete tear fest but it definitely had elements that tugged at my heart strings.

Also, Perks of Being a Wallflower, The Book Thief, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (the whole freaking book), Mockingjay, My Sister's Keeper, and probably a lot more (to come).

LOL That is what I say about Nicholas Sparks and Kristen Hannah everytime I am reading a book from them, My fiance always laughs at me when I'm bawling my eyes out! John Green is my new reason for buying tissues!

My Beating Teenage Heart by Kelly C.K. Martin

The Fault in our Stars by Jhon Green
Before I Fall by Lauren oliver
:'''( All theses books made me bawl my eyes out


Tracy Suzanne's Diary to Nicholas by James Patterson (I was a blubbering mess when I finished it). Also, almost every one of the books from the Warriors series by Erin Hunter. They are so full of emotion! You really get to know each character deeply and when things happen or situations arise in each of these books, I cry. Sometimes for good, sometimes for something unfortunate. The Warriors is a very moving series.


em (lattereads) I bawled in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Don't pretend you didn't either, *shakes finger.* I KNOW YOU CRIED TOO! DO NOT DENY IT! (Me, whenever I think back to that book.)

Christie Dorothy Koomson's Goodnight Beautiful, and My Best Friend's Girl.

Also, Goodnight Tweetheart by Teresa Medeiros, was good.

Although these all fall in the adult catagory instead of the young adult one, if that makes a difference.

Michelle The Fault in Our Stars by John Green The Horse Whisperer by Nicholas Evans Marley and Me Life and Love With the World's Worst Dog by John Grogan Queen The Ultimate Illustrated History of the Crown Kings of Rock by Phil Sutcliffe The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger Memnoch the Devil (The Vampire Chronicles, #5) by Anne Rice Life of Pi by Yann Martel Mockingjay (The Hunger Games, #3) by Suzanne Collins

Don't ask me why I cried while reading this books, sometimes I start crying and I just don't know why. For example: I cried while reading The Catcher In The Rye. I cried when Phoebe was at the carrousel and Holden was watching in the rain. Very strange, I know, but it was a beautiful moment. I cried while reading a non-fiction book because they were describing the death of my hero, Frieddie Mercury.

Emma Sing me to sleep by Angela Morrison
That was the first book that EVER made me cry


Tracy I forgot to mention Cloud Nine by Luanne Rice--about a woman with a terminal illness who finally finds a nice guy to love. Not ya.

Lawrence Not many guys here people. When a 52 year old male reads it and crys at the end, is he sad. Guess I'm sad then.

Writing your own book and editing it comes a close second.


Serena Insurgent by Veronica Roth and The fault in our stars by john green!


Morgan Leung The Fault in Our Stars, Hunger Games, Catching Fire, Mockingjay, Life As We Knew It, andThe Book Thief

I watched the movie for The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, and I did indeed cry. I'm looking into reading the book.

Erin O'Riordan Besides TFIOS (I cried, dropped the book, then called it a stupid book for making me cry and drop it):

Charlotte's Web
Pretty Birds
The Amber Spyglass - the most any book has ever made me cry
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - and I still can't watch the second movie without crying

I never did cry when I read 'The Book Thief,' but I did scream "Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaax!" unbelievably loud and I'm sure all the neighbors thought I was crazy.

Anna Am I the only one who almost cried in Cassie's Clockwork Prince? The 19th chapter, I could swear would break your heart!


Tammy Robinson Hi :-) My book Charlie and Pearl is getting a reputation as a tear jerker, below is a facebook post yesterday (that I copied to my blog) and the replies from some ladies in the UK (who I don't know). Book is free right now on Kindle (24 hours only)

Woke up this morning to find I’d been tagged in a few posts on facebook, by some lovely ladies in the UK (who I don’t know). They have all read Charlie and Pearl and loved it, but it made them all cry!!! One lady started a post asking if anyone had read the book and not cried, and here are some of the replies…

‘Charlie and Pearl made salty water leak out of my eyes.’

‘I cried like a baby !!!!’

‘Sobbed. ‘

‘I was bawling from about halfway through!’

‘I’ve just finished reading ‘Charlie and Pearl’ Have to say I cried like a baby at the end, such a moving story xxx’


Charlie and Pearl


message 38: by Paula (new)

Paula "I stand here ironing" in Tillie Olsen's Tell Me a Riddle
There are others, but that one so much that I can't read more than maybe five words in and I'm bawling.


Tessa If I Stay (If I Stay, #1) by Gayle Forman just broke my heart..

I know, right? After I read like, 10 books by him I stopped. It just got old and predictable. But, I have cried SO HARD.


message 46: by [deleted user] (new)

i literally just finished the fault in our stars
i sobbed from page 213 all the way to the end. like sobbed, like i was gasping for air and praying that somehow none of it was actually happening. because i seriously don't understand what just happened. life is so precarious and strange and wonderful and i miss gus.
okay


Marianne Besides TFIOS I can only remember If I Stay. That book is so sad, or atleast it makes you (and by you I mean "you reading the book", aka reader) sad.


Ayuningtyas this book The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein and this book Wonder by R.J. Palacio


Avani The Book Thief by Markus Zusak D':


message 50: by [deleted user] (new)

I actually cry a lot… but i started being so sentimental when I first read The Notebook, and then I carried on with all the others Nicholas Sparks novels, crying every single time..
