I never cry with movies, books or even funerals. (Yes I'm a human) but the first book that made me cry was paperweight by meg haston.

either Allegiant (Veronica Roth) or Curses and Smoke (Vicky Alvear Shecter)
i used to not cry in movies, books or shows but the first book i cried was ‘the sun is also a star’ by nicola yoon. there is also a movie of it. and now i cry in almost every book i read
The tattooist of Auschwitz The Nightingale Kristin Hannah cried like a baby
I wouldn't say I'm not a crier but it takes a lot. if you want a book to make you SOB read A Little Life
I mostly cry when animals are mistreated or die. I cried when Stephen King killed off Oy in The Dark Tower.
Little Women. (SPOILER)
when Jo and Beth go to the beach together and Beth talks about being ready for death, i just couldn’t take it and sobbed 😭 and then her actual death scene in the movie had me sobbing also.
ever since then i cry SO easily at media, either it opened the floodgates for me or it’s just because i’m a teenager and you know ✨hormones✨
@jonesy should I get it at the library or just immediately buy it ?
@Killua so i know you said you don’t like sickness in books but it’s only a small portion of a decently long book, so if you feel like you could handle it i’d totally suggest giving it a try from the library! <3 don’t push yourself to though!
Half A World Away by Mike GayleI was in tears reading this book
@jonesy oh thats not bad, I mean its sad for her but not anything I can't handle im just that if I hear a sickness I somehow get scared I have it I dont know why but scarlet fever isn't gonna stop me from reading it :)
I've read Firefly Lane and The Nightengale by Kristin Hannah and both had me in tears. Although more so The Nightengale than Firefly Lane.
@Killua oh gotcha! but yeah if you think it won’t bother you then i definitely recommend it! :)
@jonesy i wanted to reservate it in my library but someone already has it :((( so I have to wait.
I wish I could cry more often, because I need that release of emotions tbh. First time I cried though was Warrior Cats, when I finished Power of Three and thought Hollyleaf was dead. I cried myself to sleep :0.
@Emma I TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THAT ONE I READ THE ENTIRE SERIES IN 2021 IN 2 MONTHS I WAS OBSESSED!!! AND THOSE BECAUSE OF THOSE BOOKS I STARTED READING WHY DID YOU HAVE TO REMIND ME I WAS EMOTIONALLY NOT AVAILABLE FOR 3 MONTHS AFTER I FINISHED
I cry often, but Fredrik Backman's The Beartown Trilogy--especially the third, final volume, needs two boxes of tissues or an entire roll of TP!
The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
by Sarah J. Maas even right now typing this I could burst into tears, I can't even count how many times that book made me cry.
i think its "bloody heart by Sophie lark "
A thousand boy kisses.....
The Notebook…..long before the movie came out. Then I cried in the movie too.

I think that the first book that made me cry for the first time was "Marley and Me". I also cried while watching the movie

I honestly think it was the Hunger games tbh

good girl bad blood (agggtm series-book 2)
there are so many that made me sob, harry potter goblet of fire hit hard, the bone witch trilogy sets you up for a sob fest, brother by ania alhoborn, head full of ghosts paul tremblay these are the ones that immediately come to mind.
Many years ago, in the late 1990s, I was teaching 5th grade and one of our core literature books was "Wringer" by Jerry Spinelli and I had never read it prior to reading it with my students. At the end of every day, I would read a chapter of this book aloud to my fifth graders as they followed along, and one day I got to a part that brought me to tears in front of my students. They tried comforting me telling me it was ok, it was only a book. So I shared with them that even if a book is fictional, we as the readers can still connect with the feelings, and that this book had tapped into my feelings of loss from pets in my past. But this was the first time that I cried from reading a book.
Thirteen Reasons Why got me really close to crying.
I don't think so I have read much sad books that could make you cry.
And of course A Very Large Expanse of Sea was also a sad one.
beartown by fredrick backman has my whole heart
I guess the closest would be the Notebook? I perhaps felt a bit of emotion but I wouldn't say I was close to shedding actual tears. I think I shed more tears watching sad movies than I ever did reading a book lol....I was in tears watching Jack die in Titanic! lol
Radio silence
It's very hard to make me cry. The first time I remember crying while reading was when I finished Marley and Me. Since then the only other time I can think of is when I was rereading the third book of Percy Jackson (view spoiler) That's all I can think of.
