If I Stay by Gayle Forman.
This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen – Tadeusz Borowski. It’s a book of short stories, based on his own experience. It’s what he doesn’t say, what he just hints at, which gets to you. Do not read in public.

Yea me too??I cried for 2 days thinking about that book..But I but hesitant to suggest to ppl because of self abuse and all most ppl get put off reading such books…

If I Stay
The Fault In Our Stars by John Greene and Me Before You by JoJo Moyes

I cried so hard reading the last of the series while eating alone in a restaurant, two waitresses came over to ask if I was okay.
With wet cheeks and a runny nose, I confessed a favorite child died in my book.
I LOVE books that make me cry.
One of favorites is Calling Me Home by
Julie Kibler.
The Light Between Oceans by M.L. Stedman
White Rebel Rose or Rebel White Rose…a heart breaker…
Never forgotten by Kelly risser it’s free on amazon Kindle
This book is very interesting. It will make you feel all kinds of emotions, and it will also make you feel sinful for crying (the love in this story goes against the norm, and is far from acceptable (hence the name).

Wally Lamb… She’s Come Undone and This Much I Know is True.
Sarah’s Key
Outlander
The First Phone Calls from Heaven, any Chicken Soup for the Soul makes me cry. I still haven’t been able to read Joyce Carol Oates book Missing Mom.

The Nightengale. I not only cried reading it but also cried when telling my man about it. Sooooo good.
Infernal devices…
Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers. I cried buckets full.
Nicholas Sparks is the author for you. Most of his books have me chunking great big sobs
I commented before reading your comment. I second this! ?
Me too! Message in a bottle ripped my soul apart. I had to take a break from it, cause I couldn’t see the pages ?
@Heather agreed. Message in a bottle was a real tear jerker, the notebook was also one that had me actually sobbing….. no ladylike tears…..great big gulping sobs. I couldn’t bring myself to watch the movies, the books were just that good that I’m sure a movie couldn’t compete
I actually loved most of the movie for Message in a Bottle. The part I thought silly was Garrett and Catherine counting time between lightning and thunder, it was a bit too over acted childish. The rest was quite moving!
thank you soooooo much everyone i just added a bunch of new books to my to-read list you guys are awesome!! ?

@Stacey…thanks for tagging me in this! ?
@Aliner…try anything by Nicolas Sparks. Message in a Bottle, A Walk to Remember, The Notebook. Nicolas Sparks has an amazing gift to make women cry ?
Bridges of Maddison County is another great book to cry to. But, if you’re looking for a good cry that’s not romance, try The Color Purple or Old Yeller will rip your heart out and crush it beneath their literary feet ?
