The Bitch Posse made me cry a little. I'm fairly certain 13 Reasons Why got me (I know the show did), along with Speak and some other emotional YA books.

Many books have made me cry. Maybe I'm just emotional, but as long as it's a pretty well-written scene, I will end up crying. The Night Angel Trilogy, Lightbringer series, etc.

Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher, that book talks about a very important issue in the society and it's really sad,to me I think it was very crucial that he used that as a medium in the book

Years ago in high school, I read a book called “The Truth About Forever”. I say at my kitchen table, felt like I couldn’t move until I finished the whole book. It was so heartwarming, so much truth in it, despite its Fictional genre. I imagine what my own life would be like if I had experience something that the main character did, being a high school athlete, as was I at the time, and developing bone cancer. It was devestating; I cried so much during this read and to be honest, I would read it again.

Pangur Ban by Mary Stolz is a great book to read aloud to kids if you want to teach them to empathize with animals. It may make you cry, but totally worth it. It's based on an old Irish poem about a monk and his cat.

Oh my! The first book that I think about here is A Walk To Remember by Nicholas Sparks.


I was around thirteen or so when I read this book. And Jaime reminded me so much of myself.

A pastors daughter, and extremely innocent.


I won't spoil it in case you have not read it, or seen the movie ( which not only made me cry, but my dad, too ) But, I will say I never expected the sad twist. And it left me heartbroken.


Though, as a child of God myself, I saw the beauty in the mist of the sadness and that's what truly brought the tears.
