      I absolutely hated Illuminae even though everyone seemed to love it : I found it so cringy and boring ! I regretted buying it sooo hard and to this day I still don't understand why people hyped it this much... same with Caraval...I'm not against some romance but God I hated the ones in these two
      Btw I love your videos ! And I don't usually cry while reading either but ah... A Monster Calls made me cry my heart out 😭

      Yes! Night shocked me so much. I knew it was about the holocaust, but I had to read it for school(which i usually hate reading required books) and books don't often make me cry. I'm also not a huge fan of nonfiction, so I wasn't really expecting so many emotions! Let's just say it was a bad choice to read it on the bus surrounded by lots of people...

    Flowers for Algernon is definitely number one on my list, I completely agree with you. It's so hard for me to talk about it without wanting to just blurt out everything! As well as I'll Give You The Sun because I read it first at 13 and then again at 16 and having the twins be the ages that I was at the time really put into perspective how teenagers deal with their own issues, it'll be a while before I can read it again haha.
    Perks of Being a Wallflower and The Outsiders also got me the second time that I read them.
    I wanna read Evelyn Hugo now! I already had an interest, but everyone keeps mentioning the ending and you really sold me, I was also interested in Man's Search for Meaning-- nonfictions like that are always the hardest for me because, as you said, I will (hopefully) never understand what they went through and it's heartbreaking.

The Little Prince is a good heart wrencher if you're in the market for a good heart felt cry. Maybe it was just me. The old man in the story reminded me very much of my grandpa and it just pounded on all the feels.

    From all these the only ones I've read are TSHOEH, and MSFM, and both made me feel a lot, in different ways, but none made me cry. Still, great books; MSFM is a necessary educative read, and TSHOEH a great story with an amazing main character, so real and gripping (I actually want it to be adapted to a series/tv show, I think it'd suit it better than a film, but a film would be cool too!). AMC is in my TBR list, and you just made me want to read FFA and IGYTS! Thank you~

    Before I Die by Jenny Downham broke me. I usually do not cry, like at all but by the end of that book, I was a wreck. The name is kind of a spoiler but the small details of her relationship with her brother and father just made my heart shatter. Just her knowing that she won't live long and knowing she won't achieve what she wants before she dies- just her family and friends coming to terms with that. I highly recommend. Sure, the romance was nice but it was her family relationships that got me.

    Flowers for Algernon was adapted to a movie I believe. Made in 1968 called Charly. So very good and definitely cry worthy.

    A book that never fails to rip out my heart and smash it to pieces is The Time Traveler’s Wife - which I highly recommend!

    I don't read a lot of books that make me cry, but I just finished reading Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda and it did make me cry, although the movie made me cry more.

  • @lclough25

    Night and the Dark Materials series also broke my heart.
    By far, the most recent book I cried the most while reading was The Heart’s Invisible Furies by John Bourne.

    Tears came to my eyes thinking of the ending to Flowers for Algernon . I read the short story first and a few years later I read the novel . There is also a movie which I have seen

    The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, Illuminae, and The Death Cure made me cry. I think in school when I read The Outsiders, Where the Red Fern Grows, and Night I cried. I don't cry often in books (in general really though unless animals being hurt are involved lol) but those got to me!

    Do you remember if you talked about His Dark Materials in a video? Like a wrap up or readathon? I’m reading it now and would love to watch that video to hear your thoughts when they were fresh!

    "King's Cage" by Victoria Aveyard and "The Rose & the Dagger" by Renee Ahdieh are the books that made me ball my eyes out🙃

    Salt to the Sea and Sarah’s Key will forever hold a special place in my heart and I remember crying so much afterwards but they are incredible works of historical fiction

    My cry worthy books (not necessarily crying at the ending, but crying at various heart rending parts):
    Forbidden - Tabatha Suzuma
    11/22/63 - Stephen King
    The Binding - Bridget Collins
    The Taste of Sorrow - Jude Morgan
    Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - J K Rowling
    The Kite Runner - Khaled Hosseini
    The Fault In Our Stars - John Green
    The Help - Kathryn Stockett

    So, The Monster Calls also broke me. Then I decided that we should watch the movie as a family. It broke my then 7 year old son! He sobbed and kept holding onto me. It was so good!

    My grandma is as much of a book nerd as me, and I've got her "Flowers for Algernon" as a gift for International Women's Day - I hope she would love it as much as I did!
    I got her my favorite "Star Rover" by Jack London a couple of years ago - not nesseseraly cry book for me (though can be devastating for others), but still philosophically deep and emotional - and she enjoyed it a lot.
    It's a book about US prisoner in 1890s, who while being subjected to days of pain in straight-jacket re-lives his previous lives throughout history.
    Along with "Flowers for Algernon", it's one of THE books for me!❤

    Flowers for Algernon was such a strange experience! The prevalent emotion I felt throughout the book was annoyance, I just really didn't sympathize with the main character after he started the experiment. I fully expected to feel angry and disappointed after I finished it. And then the ending hit and I found myself inexplicably crying my eyes out. An I don't mean shedding a tear or two, shit got ugly. A really powerful book.

    I'll Give You the Sun made me cry as well. So did Aristotle and Dante...
    The Stone Sky made me sob. Like loud hiccuping sobbing.
    Same with Perks of Being a Wallflower.

    Oh my, I cried so much with the ending of Flowers for Algernon!! I'm afraid to read A Monster Calls just because I'll cry ^^' same for Survival in Auschwitz by Primo Levi!
    I think I'll make a video about books that made me cry :) you always inspire me!

    I read Night in high school. I read A LOT. And that book is one of two that will stick with me forever. Beautifully sad.
