The fault in our stars – if you haven’t read it.
Wonder is amazing too. Very inspiring – but I cried. ?
The fault in your stars. Sobbed my heart out ?
Agreed with The Fault in our Stars!! So rich for the soul for YA read.
I read the fault in our stars while I was battling the same cancer the main character did x it was very eye opening x
I love how books can really make you think about things and help out things into perspective. They are so brave and I just loved it. Even the movie was good!
I’m so glad it helped you in your rough time. Hope you kicked cancers butt!! ❤️
@Deirdrann thank you and yes I did!!! Xx
Ten thousand splendid suns by K. Hosseini
Wonder by R J Palacio
A monster calls
Stranger – just published by @Keren
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green, The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton, I am not sure if A Walk to Remember is young adult fiction I think it depends on which Library you go to but that one, by Nicholas Sparks, had me crying most of the book.
Salt to Sea by Ruta Sepetys made me cry
Recently it was The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah
Brian’s Song and Love Story.
I never realized Brian’s Song was a book!
@Dorian it is. I had to read it in high school English class.
Both of them were tear jerkers but Brian’s Song more so because it was true. I read it when it came out in 1972 and it has stuck with me.
@Marianne I read it about the same time and always remembered it 46 years later. WOW! The same with Love Story it was the first book I couldn’t put down.
Where the red fern grows. Old book but made me cry. And I’m not a crier.
