I actually saw the movie adaptation of 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' first (which inspired me to then read the book) and I was completely destroyed by the ending. Cried for hours. So I actually cried less with the book because I already knew how it ended, but I definitely cried nonetheless.
Definitely recommend both the book and the movie ^^

There are 3 books written by asian authors that would always make me weep everytime I re-read the books. First is KITCHEN by Banana Yoshimoto that includes a short story titled moonlight shadows. Both story is about coping up with death and dealing with grieve and the loss of a love one.
The second book would be JOURNEY HOME by Yoshiko Uchida. A story about the life of a Japanese-American family during and after World War 2.
and the last book (one of my favorites) would be CHINESE CINDERELLA by Adeline Yen Mah. This story is truly heart breaking, real life experience by the author. Definitely not a fairy-tale story since the protagonist experienced a lot of hardships growing up in China during the Second World War. She was igbored by the famiky and was believed to be Badluck for causing her mother's death after giving birth to her, Was treated badly by her Step-mother and was denied love by her own father. Her struggle for acceptance was heartbreaking but also remarkable.

The only book that I can think that has made me cry was A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J Maas. I think that my tears were a combination of an emotional response to the ending of the book that ripped my heart and a combination of anger and overwhelming disappointment that the book had ended and I would have to wait a year to get my hands on the third one.

I do like that I can cry over a book though, it makes it more real for me.
