A Monster Calls made me cry like a baby. ?
That one is at the tippy top of my list!!! It looks heartbreaking! It’s taking all of my will power to not watch the movie lol. Thanks for the suggestion!
As soon as I finished the book I watched the movie. Gave myself a huge headache from all the crying ?. It’s really good. One of my all time favorites.
@Jacqueline Aww! I love those types of books and movies! I cannot wait then! I’m so glad it lives up to it’s hype! I was going to put it on my Xmas wish list but I don’t think I can wait that long haha! Which edition do you have? They have this massive gorgeous edition here that I have my eye on!
I just have the standard hardcover. I’m intrigued by the one you’re eyeing! ? if you get it please post a picture.
@Jacqueline will do! It’s hardcover as well but has such an intricate lovely design! It’s amazing!
True story
We are Okay by Nina Lacour made me cry so much.
Ooh I think I’ve heard of that one, thanks a bunch!!
Full Tilt by Emma Scott is amazing
Awesome thanks so much!! ?
1,000 boy kisses made me cry multiple times!
Yay thanks!! Sounds perfect!! Haha
Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver it is amazing and I swear I balled the whole time reading it
Aww awesome!! Sounds exactly like what I was looking for thanks!! ?
Mice and men is a short novel by John Steinbeck that always makes me cry. It’s not a love story but a life story. I also loved Grapes of Wrath but I love the classics
I read Of Mice and Men in high school actually and fell in love with it! I was shocked I liked it haha. I remember looking at and thinking “a play? And in like 30 pages?” Lol but it was so good! I haven’t read Grapes of Wrath before, I’ll have to check it out thanks!
Last Leaves Falling Sarah Benwell
Bad Girlfriend Brooke Cumberland
I haven’t read this yet but everyone says Carnage
Awesome I haven’t heard of either, just carnage which has been on my list for a little while! Thanks a lot! ?
@Anna You’re welcome! Hope you find something you like!
@Natasha aw thanks so much!! Happy reading!!
.
?? Lol
Me Before You x
I second this
I third this!
For some reason this didn’t do it for me. I am usually an emotional reader, and this didn’t give me all the feels like other books did.
I was going to read that one but didn’t get a chance before I saw the movie ? I might still try to sometime though! Thanks!!
It’s so much better than the movie, and I really enjoyed the movie
@Natasha I find some books that promise to be tearjerkers just aren’t. It’s like they try too hard.
@Anna yeah. It could also be that it was spoiled for me, or something little that bothered me or something else too.
If you do decide to read it i hope you like it better than i did! ?
@Natasha Aw thanks! That’s so sweet ? yeah sometimes a character tick drive me nuts and I can’t connect to him/Her and it ruins the book for me too.
If I Stay by Gayle Foreman
Love this book, and Where She Went ?
Yes!!
Yes! Loved this book!
I’m sorry to say I have read If I Stay and didn’t like it ? I was so disappointed. For me, it felt like it was trying too hard but that’s just my opinion! I’m glad you guys all loved it!! And thanks for the suggestion! ?
@Anna it is understandable we all read books & take different things from them. We all have different likes & dislikes. No reason to apoligize or anything about it.
@Natasha Well I just wouldn’t wanna offend anyone simply because I didn’t enjoy the book! And personally, it hurts my soul a little bit when someone doesn’t love a favourite book of mine hahaha ?
The Time Travelers Wife
I tried to read it after seeing the movie but couldn’t get into it but I’m gonna try again! Thanks!
The Perks of Being a Wallflower
Omg yes! ?
I’ve been thinking about that one for a while but keep forgetting to get it! Thanks!!
Ff
Ff??
@Anna Oh, it’s following. I just want to see some book suggestions so I started following this thread. ☺️️
Jenienor Agustin oh haha! I screenshot any good threads too ? hope you found something good!
History is all you left me by Adam Silvera and The Way Back Home by Alan Stratton. Especially the last one is a great tearjerker!
Awesome thanks so much!! ?
My heart and the other black holes, Jasmin Warga. Love letters to the dead, Ava Dellaira.
Loving them by the titles already! ? thanks so much!!
Tell Me Three Things! I’ve read that book last year and I’m still not over it.
Aw fabulous! I love books that stay with you long after you’re done them!! Thanks a bunch!! ?
Yeah! Me too!
Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver really made my eyes red and puffy. There is a big sister/little sister storyline in the book that (as a big sister myself) really had me sobbing. I actually refuse to watch the movie because I don’t want to deal with all of that crying again ?
I keep forgetting about the movie!
I deliberately forget just to save my tear ducts lol!
Aww I have a big sister and am always on the look out for books like that so thanks so much for the recommendation!! It sounds awesome!! Haha I don’t think I could watch the movie either!
It’s not exactly YA but “The Art of Racing in the Rain” made me cry. Still does when I think about it.
If you’re a dog lover buy stock in Kleenex first. Then read the book.
Thirteen reasons why.
I was here.
My sisters keeper.
The storyteller.
Those sound like great suggestions thank you!! My sister’s keeper was so good!! Have you read Picoult’s Handle With Care?? It’s absolutely my favourite of hers and one of my fav books ever actually. It’s perfection and will have you sobbing throughout. Especially the end!
I haven’t but I’ll look into it
A Thousand Splendid Suns made me cry!
That one definitely seems like it’d be an ugly cry hahaha! Thanks!!
