The book is a bit different because it’s from different people’s point of view of their experiences

@Emma all right I may have weeped a bit. Not like Ove though, I could barely read it.
Tess was still the worst crying I’ve done over a book. Heart wrenching sobs.

Well, I probably sound like a broken record but I am a Harry Potter fan. And in Half Blood Prince, Dumbledore died. I was devastated, and I knew it was a book of fiction. I cried because of Harry’s loss and darn it, my own. The people in Rowlings books had become like family, or a family of friends. She’s that good an author. And the only other time I reacted in such a way, was in Harriet Arnow’s book, The Dollmaker. Some authors have a way of breaking your heart.

I cried when Dobby died. His death was out of blue unexpected.

1
Janet

@Ritu Yes, I cried then too. But knowing how much Harry loved Dumbledore, I was crying for Harry’s pain, and of course the trios loss of protection. Dobby’s death was a sad thing too. I’m just glad she didn’t kill off Snape. Of course he was a main character, really important to the storyline.

Still Alice, The Kite Runner, A Man Called Ove, Thirteen Reasons Why, and as mentioned above several times, effing Marley and Me. God. I can’t even type the damn title now without tearing up. I have a Marley now and she went through hell and back before coming to me and the dumb dog survived being starved and 10 months of MRSA treatment and she friggin crashed and died with pre-meds before a biopsy but they brought her back and uuuuugh. That effing book **shakes fist** lol

On amazon yes. It’s the original Swedish version so make sure you turn your subtitles on. I thought I’d read somewhere they were doing another one with Tom hanks? But I could have just made that up
