I cried at the end of the Hunger Games when Katness sister dies. It broke my heart.

I cry easily at books, but the two things that get me every time are cancer/my favorite character dying. The most emotionally memorable books have been The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, The Fever Code by James Dashner, Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken, and one more I can’t think of that I’ve read three times and have cried every time.

The Joys of motherhood by Buchi Emecheta. That book introduced me to literature. I wailed when I read it. It’s one of the best.

That's very relatable. I don't know how anyone could be immune to Dobby. My main tear jerker is a fictional modern-day fairy tale romance (not my usual genre but it was really well done), Impossible by Nancy Werlin. I highly recommend it!

Oh, this. 😪 Sighs. It was The Long Road Home by Danielle Steele. I struggled to get a grip and just finish this book...it is torturous and it was the last time I picked a Danielle Steele. :snooty:

Oh yes...I disliked that book for a long time. But it opened my eyes to a lot of things...making me questions cultural values against women.

Let's just say that I feel what the character feels. If they're hurt, I cry. That's why I like to read alone and at night :D

I can not really remember what book exactly made me cry. I think it was Kite Runner or I am Malala

I read All The Bright Places a few months ago and was a sobbing wreck by the time I finished it. That novel is still one of my favourites.^^
