The Fault in our stars by John Green made me cry and cry, I haven't even been able to bring myself to watch the movie because I love the story how it is and don't want it ruined. Also don't want to cry through the whole thing.

I'm a HUGE cry baby when it comes to reading. It's so hard to read through the tears but I can't stop when it's a great part. The last book I read is The Plum Tree by Ellen Marie Wiseman.

I have cried at too many books to remember. The most recent one that I remember crying at was If I stay by Gayle Forman.

I am the same way. I am more concerned if I don't cry.

I've never actually cried over a book, I don't think, however I can't actually talk about the ending of FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS because I get so choked up.

I just read We Are the Ants by Shaun David Hutchinson (which I truly believe will be huge), and I have to say...there were some parts that got to me.
It's also funny, and geeky (any book that references Doctor Who :lol:), and beautiful.
Pronouns: She/Her

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Oh boy, where do I even begin? Reading is so important to me partially because a good book is able to draw out such raw emotions, including tears. And fortunately, there are a lot of great books out there.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, is a big one as I cry every time I read it.

The Book Thief, The Sweet Far Thing, The Hunger Games trilogy, Allegiant, To Kill A Mockingbird, these are just a few. I am completely in awe of writers who are capable of portraying characters, and telling their stories in ways that draw the readers in.
