Plenty, but my go-to, I know I need a good cry and this book always makes me is Alex: The Life of a Child. It’s Frank Deford’s account of his daughter’s struggle with cystic fibrosis. It may be hard to find, but I cherish my copy.

I cry during books regularly, but one of the ones that made me full-on, ugly cry was The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness. But I cry in pretty much any book where a character I’ve connected with dies!
