The book that broke my hart is The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken. The main protagonist really don't have much of luck. In the end I couldn't take it any more. But to be honest i cried really hard in The little prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

I have cried during a lot of the Nicholas Sparks books. He always tugs at the heartstrings. I also cried while reading Bridges of Madison County. That has always been one of my favorite books.

I cry very often in books and movies. However some I remember very clearly are Karen Kingsbury books, especially The Baxter series.

So many books have made me cry, but I want to say the one that made me cry most recently was A Bloody Book by Chris Bowen. Anything that shows a child or teenager having to grow up fast really pains me, and usually end up with some tears.

I could never count the books that I have cried about, but the book I just finished comes to mind as the most recent. The Engine Woman's Light is one of the most depressing and best books I've read.

The skin that I am in by Sharon G flake, which tells a story of a young girl Maleeka who had to deal with bullying because of her dark skin. It made me very emotional.

I cried when I read Fortune is a Woman by Elizabeth Adler, I was in Primary 5 at the time. And I remember Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas by James Patterson but one of the books I have read twice and cried and laughed each time is A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving, that book is honest, gripping, questions our beliefs and realities and portrays friendship at its finest.

The book that made me cry was Little house on the prairie by Laura Ingals Wilder. When Mary the eldest Daughter looses her eye sight, and when Laura and Mary get teased by Nelly Olsen and called the country bumpkins. Kelly is just such a snobby brat and Laura won't take it like sweet Mary tends to. Mark Twain also made me cry in huckleberry Finn when talking about his drunk abusive father.
