Les Misérables (view spoiler)[ Am I the only one who feels really bad for Eponine? She deserved soo much more... every time I remember her death I just cry! (hide spoiler)]

Yes!!! Yes yes yes! Before i opened the spoiler i literally guessed that's who you were gonna say bc (view spoiler)[she really deserved better. Also Jean Valjean got treated so bad by Marius when all he did was help him so i think he deserved better too. And marius didnt even realize it until it was almost too late so jean valjean literally dies bc of his sadness without cosette!😭 (hide spoiler)]

[Dreamer]

Wuthering Heights (view spoiler)[Catherine and Heathcliff... both of them! I know that many people don't like them, and that they think they deseved what they got... but why? I can't help feeling like they're just two hurted people, who never intended to end up like this... I just love them, and I cry so much with their ending.. I think the worst was for Heathcliff, who just lost her, and then ended up like that.. I just think they deserved better. Much better... (hide spoiler)]

[Dreamer]

Ohhh, and also (how could I forget) The Hobbit, or There and Back Again(view spoiler)[Kili and Fili and Thorin! Like, come on... I cried when it said they were dead... (hide spoiler)]

[Hailey]

Tris and Four from Divergent 😭

[Dreamer]

Also, I recently read The Island of the Day Before:

(view spoiler)[ I really believe Roberto deserved better, I mean, I just can't imagine that he either died while trying to reach the island, or that he reached it and realised that everything was going on inside his head. I mean, both posibilities sound same awful to me :( (hide spoiler)]

All the Light We Cannot See (view spoiler)[ Werner. Werner. Werner. WERNER! Like, why? Please, why? (hide spoiler)]

Literally same... but I think that if that didn't happen it would've been unrealistic. Still made me sob at 1am...(view spoiler)[he didn't get to see his sister again 😭 (hide spoiler)]

Literally same... but I think that if that..."

(view spoiler)[ I totally agree. Also, am I the only one that found the scene when Jutta was reading his notebook sad. Like, so so so so sad. Maybe even sadder than the death scene itself (hide spoiler)]

Yes! I always think that the saddest thing isnt when people die, but rather the pain that those who lived have to endure, and to live with for the rest of their lives

[Willow Anne]

The Last Thing He Told Me - (view spoiler)[All of them. They all deserved better. Owen. Hannah. Bailey. I just can't even comprehend the pain of being right there but never being able to actually be with them. To talk to them. To tell them you love them. But they know. And you're doing it because you love them (hide spoiler)]

[Dreamer]

Klara and the Sun (view spoiler)[ Klara. Obviously. I can't imagine that she was just dumped there. I really couldn't stop crying. She offered Josie everything she had, and Josie just left her. No, that's not what she deserved. (hide spoiler)]

[Dreamer]

The Song of Achilles! So much! (view spoiler)[ they just both deserved so much better! They deserved a quite, happy life, without war, or people getting between them. They deserve a life where they can be, free to show their love, even when other people are in front of them. I hope they can finally have that life in the underworld (hide spoiler)]

[Hailey]

literally everyone in the hunger games and divergent

I totally agree :)

[riley rue]

A Little Life (view spoiler)[Jude, of course Jude, who wouldn't have wanted Jude to have been in a normal and happy family? (hide spoiler)]

[Dreamer]

And now I really need to read this book to see who character you believe deserved better :)

[Anya]

Lord of the Flies - William Golding (view spoiler)[ Piggy, broke my heart twice, once as a kid and again last year. :( (hide spoiler)]

Handle with Care - Jodi Picoult (view spoiler)[ Willow, this ending had me so frustrated I wrote a note and tucked it into the first pages of the library book. Still haunts me every time I step onto ice. (hide spoiler)]

Looking for Alaska - John Green (view spoiler)[ Alaska, I know it's the whole point of the plot, but it crossed the line into romanticization, maybe it was just my age, but I was the target audience. (hide spoiler)]

The Institute - Stephen King (view spoiler)[ Holy crap so many kids. (hide spoiler)]

Devolution - Max Brooks (view spoiler)[ So many characters but I understand why most of them had to die for the plot, but I really really wanted Mostar to be among the survivors. (hide spoiler)]

Bent Heavens - Daniel Kraus(view spoiler)[ This was a sort of accidental read, I hadn't yet learned to filter out YA novels on my library's app. For any audience but moreso for a YA novel this was so unfairly tragic. The fathers death and final years were so grotesque. (hide spoiler)]

I definitely agree with Dreamer on All the Light We Cannot See, that one stung.

I finished Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and I could't agree more. But I also want to add that (view spoiler)[ Snape, Lupin and Tonks deserved better as well! (hide spoiler)]

[Willow Anne]

from I Must Betray You - (view spoiler)[cici😭she was just trying to do what was best for her brother and she just ends up dying! and nobody was on her side, she was all alone (hide spoiler)]

[Dreamer]

In Never Let Me Go (view spoiler)[ ALL OF THEM! You can't just create human beings and then tell them their only purpose in life is to give their organs so as others can live! This is cruel! They all deserved a life as everyone else! (hide spoiler)]
