My all time favorites tearjerker - P.S. I LOVE YOU. And you get to look at hotties Gerard Butler and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Of course this is a movie as opposed to book but you did say “tear jerker”.

I've only seen the movie which brings major tears every time I watch it, so I assume the book, which I have not read would do the same. "The Notebook" by Nicolas Sparks.

Mary · Answer

Romeo and Juliet tops my list for the tear jerker romance. After that, Love Story was pretty good. I'm generally not a romance fan, not that I have anything against them, it's just that I like other things better so I don't know about contemporary romances. I just realized that I have read Where the Crawdads Sing and that definitely has romance in it although though that's not the only theme.
