After watching your videos for a long time and you being open about your family and life I know I don’t fully but I do feel like I know you a little. So . . . Every time you get emotional my eyes well up. Thank you for sharing yourself with us. You are precious.
A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman made me bawl my eyes out. I cried reading Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein too. Both are books I highly recommend!
It still makes me so happy that you were such a mess over 11.22.63. I just love when people share my feels. The other book that never fails to make me cry is Forbidden by Tabitha Suzuma, but I think you have already read that one. There are books I listen to as audiobooks at work and then have to switch them off so I don't break down in front of people. Any story that has characters suffering from trauma, PTSD from war, torture, or abuse, etc, or anyone losing somebody they love... I just blub. I would like more happy tears books too, and while there have been some, I can't think of any now... perhaps The Binding by Bridget Collins. Highly recommend that one.
the song of achilles and all the light we cannot see are the only books that have ever made me BAWL my eyes out like full on sobbing 😭 they're my top two favorite books so rereading them is always painful
Loveless got me too for the same reasons! And also your vlog about it made me cry too 😂. The beginning of The Midnight Library made me tear up because Matt Haig made me feel Nora’s pain so acutely.
Love it!! I absolutely have to read Midnight Library, that is so my type of story!! I cried at The Green Mile, Flowers for Algernon, Kite Runner, Still Alice, Mockingjay 😭
As someone struggling with postpartum depression, I'm hoping to read The Midnight Library soon. I really think it might help me with my own feelings of worthlessness and just not being a good enough mom. I'll always trust your recommendations. 😊
You are not worthless. You are a Mom, that in itself is such a great accomplishment!! Be proud of yourself and you don’t need to be perfect no one is, you do the best you can and it will be great.
Addie LaRue made me bawl my eyes out at the end. What an amazing book! I’m also planning on reading Loveless and I know it’s going to hit me so hard for all the same reasons it did you.
I would not be able to read Eleanor and grey. Its been 5 years now but my mom got diagnosed with non Hoskins lymphoma and died within 4 days of her diagnosis. She was only 44. She was my absolute best friend and I miss her every day. Im married now and I have a 15 month old son and im pregnant with our second child and I so wish my mom was here to meet them.
Hi Gabby, I’d be interested in you doing a reading vlog on classic books or books that came out in the early 2000’s! I think it would be interesting to compare older fiction to modern fiction! Just something different :) I appreciate all of your videos and I look forward to watching them!
'Pretty Girls' I highly recommend this book to everyone out there. Evn though I didn't cry this book triggered me to a deeper level. It left me numb and sensitive for weeks 😭.
Absolutely yes to The Midnight Library! Making Faces by Amy Harmon messed me up. It broke me and had me sobbing through the last 80 or so pages. I highly recommend!!
Yessss Pretty Girls is so sad!! It's such a good book and Karin Slaughter's writing is so good. I cannot wait to read Addie LaRue! If you've read The Good Daughter by Karin Slaughter that one is so sad too! You should try out that book!
@@sarahmorley1031 I can’t wait to read it!! And Yes Pretty Girls is so good that I added it to my first video on my TH-cam channel for thriller recommendations!!
I recommend Lisa Gardner's Love You More or Catch me!! They are a part of series, but I personally read them as stand alones and they were both exceptionally good!! Hope you check them out ! 💕
One Day and Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo have probably made me cry the most. I’m currently reading The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue and I think it’s going to be another one on my list.
"Pretty Girls" also had me this close to crying because of how frustrated I was at what was happening and the fear I was feeling for the two sisters, especially considering this could easily be based on a true story. It truly was upsetting.
@@alanaz918 I'd say it's worth giving it a try, but without having the highest expectations about it - that's what made it impossible for me to fully enjoy the novel. There's a lot of violence indeed, especially towards the end, but I think it's GREAT entertainment because of the number of events that happen in the story. It's just not the most spectacular thriller to ever exist. To each its own, I guess, I always suggest to try and read books for yourself and see if you like them, no matter the reviews. Worst case scenario you can always DNF it. If you end up picking it up: I hope you enjoy it
I love ho you can share your feeling without feeling embarrassment, i literally cant do what u do! I would tear and cry like a BIG BABY and then id make fun of myself :(
I pretty much have no felings (I didn't cry while reading a little life, i actually hated the book) and quite a few of the books you've mentioned are on my TBR so I can't wait
Since you like Haig and how his books make you think about big things like what makes life worth living and what it means to be human...I would highly recommend the full length novel of The Postronic Man by Isaac Asimov and Robert Silverberg. Its and old one but one of my favorite stories about humanity and it completely breaks my heart but in a good way.
I can't decide if I like it hate crying over books. This is wierd but, Harry Potter and the Cursed Chikd made me cry at one point because it was so relate!e. Albuses black cloud of haters and anger.....me
Loveless made me freaking SOB, and I'm not even on the ace spectrum lol. I just think that if you identify as LGBTQ+ in any way, this book will definitely give you a good breakdown. And the friendships were so pure, omg I literally wanna cry just thinking about the characters.
please dont hate me guys... but i didn't find Pretty Girls to be as horrifically violent and insane as everyone on booktube seems to have? i still gave it a 4/5 for the writing and I SOBBED AT THE END! it seemed like it could have been a unique criminal minds episode to me
Hey Gabby, I'm currently writing an article on the book Loveless and the power of non romantic love during the era COVID19. As someone who is a cisgender and heterosexual male, I was still emotionally moved by that novel. As well as relate to it (to an extent). Ex: "OMG! You've never been in a serious relationship?! You're so pure!! Is there a reason?" If it gets published I will let you know. Your review got me interested in reading it and I honestly felt like now was the perfect time in regards to my personal life. Thank you!! :) A couple of books that made me cry: Pedro and Me (graphic novel) The Book Thief- Markus Zusak Wonder- R J Palacio I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter- Erika L Sanchez Opposite of Always- Justin A Reynolds
Omg ill be honest, READ MORE STEPHEN KING!! :D If you wanna cry, read the green mile. And btw can we be booktube friends? Edit: not that anyone cares but im dinking my coffee so fast like ZOOM

There really is nothing better than a good cry from a good book :)
I don’t know what it was about The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo - but I cried at the end. I couldn’t even tell you why lol
Saaaame 😭😭😭
Me tooooo
"Is a Stephen King book actually making me cry?"
Oh honey, please read The Green Mile asap. 😭❤️
Omg.....I totally agree. That book......made me sob my heart out. Heartbreaking 💔
@@kerryann2041 it's such a beautiful and sad story
Totally agree! I was very emotional reading the green mile 😢
@@LadyxSky it really is. It is one of those books that definitely stays with you long after you close the last page. It gets me right there.......💔
I cried several time during that book! It’s so good
Ahhh it can be so cathartic when you get so emotionally invested in a book and letting it all out!!

The Midnight Library made me cry too😭

Thank you for putting Loveless on my radar. That vlog was so touching. Thank you for sharing pieces of your life with us.
The only book I have ever cried from was Marley and Me. I cried for the movie too. I will definitely be trying some of these!
A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman made me bawl my eyes out. I cried reading Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein too. Both are books I highly recommend!
Hey Gabby, just wanted to stop in and let you know, you are my favorite BookTuber.
Thank you so much!! 😭😭❤️

I’m so glad I found you this year!! Thank you for so many great recommendations!!
"The First Time she drowned" and "The Sun does shine" made me cry full-out.

Great video. I haven’t had many books that made me cry. I’ve only had a few that made me cry that I know of.
Addie LaRue made me bawl my eyes out at the end. What an amazing book! I’m also planning on reading Loveless and I know it’s going to hit me so hard for all the same reasons it did you.
I’m reading The Midnight Library tomorrow and I don’t think I’m prepared for it!
My Sister’s Keeper and The Nightingale made me 😭😭😭
Addie and The Midnight Library are on my tbr for this month so we shall see...
I would not be able to read Eleanor and grey. Its been 5 years now but my mom got diagnosed with non Hoskins lymphoma and died within 4 days of her diagnosis. She was only 44. She was my absolute best friend and I miss her every day. Im married now and I have a 15 month old son and im pregnant with our second child and I so wish my mom was here to meet them.
Only Child by Rhiannon Navin made me sob. I couldn't stop thinking about it for weeks. The End of the World by Amy Matayo, heartbroken.

Author?
@@kiransaleem2499 Karin Slaughter
I’m so excited to read all of these books 💞😊
flowers for algernon dried all my tears!!!!
The most recent books I have read that made me cry are The Dream Daughter by Diane Chamberlain and 28 Summers by Elin Hilderbrand.
Absolutely yes to The Midnight Library! Making Faces by Amy Harmon messed me up. It broke me and had me sobbing through the last 80 or so pages. I highly recommend!!
The Book that made me cry the most was Everything I Never Told you by Celeste Ng. It was sad from beginning to end.
Yessss Pretty Girls is so sad!! It's such a good book and Karin Slaughter's writing is so good. I cannot wait to read Addie LaRue! If you've read The Good Daughter by Karin Slaughter that one is so sad too! You should try out that book!
Im hoping to get pretty girls for Christmas 🤞 Addie La Rue was phenomenal, you have to read it. It might be my best book of all time ❤
@@sarahmorley1031 I can’t wait to read it!! And Yes Pretty Girls is so good that I added it to my first video on my TH-cam channel for thriller recommendations!!
Okay now I want to read loveless. Not because I can relate but because I want to know and understand !!!!
I recommend Lisa Gardner's Love You More or Catch me!! They are a part of series, but I personally read them as stand alones and they were both exceptionally good!! Hope you check them out ! 💕
I just purchased loveless and I cannnnnot wait to read it

Would you say it’s worth reading? I’ve seen a lot of reviews saying it’s kinda just unnecessary violence over and over again.

The Book Thief made me cry 😭
Same here. Just hit me hard at the end. Beautiful book.
Only 3 books have made me cry: Forbidden by Tabitha Suzuma
All the Ugly and Wonderful Things by Bryn Greenwood
White Oleander by Janet Fitch
Oh my God, Forbidden is such an amazing book. I cried so much. My heart broke for Lochan.
@@monicaspurpledoor it is in Gabby’s first Books that Made me cry video
What a coincidence after I just finished A little life...
I adore your videos 😜
I can’t handle death of a parent! There is only one book that made me cry this year and it was for that reason. 💙
Nothing like a good book cry 🙌🏼
I can't decide if I like it hate crying over books. This is wierd but, Harry Potter and the Cursed Chikd made me cry at one point because it was so relate!e. Albuses black cloud of haters and anger.....me
Please read The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns. Heart touching books❣️
You are the person whom I want to hug once in my life😭.
A Man Called Ove got me
Me too!
The last book that made me ugly cry was “Lily and the Octopus”. Dog books will always be my kryptonite 😭😭😭.
Amen to addie
easy way to cry , close a car door on your pinky . thank me later
Loveless made me freaking SOB, and I'm not even on the ace spectrum lol. I just think that if you identify as LGBTQ+ in any way, this book will definitely give you a good breakdown. And the friendships were so pure, omg I literally wanna cry just thinking about the characters.
I Stop Somewhere made me cry like a baby!! Heavy trigger warnings for rape and sexual abuse, though, so be careful if anyone chooses to read!
