I just finished One Day in December by Josie Silver and I sobbed through the last ten pages. I also just can’t stop crying through all of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

The last one that made me ugly cry was The Fault in the Stars by John Green(I think that is his name). That being said, I never cried as much as I did when I read the Harry Potter series. I get misty eyed just thinking about it!

Also Sort of Forever by Sally Warner. On the days I finished TFIOS and Allegiant, I was having bad days so I decided to read those books to give me an “excuse” to cry (even though I cry all the time, so it’s nothing new ?)
