Top Ten Tuesday: Books That Will Make You Cry


This is a meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish where each week bloggers share a list of books for the prompt given. So hopefully I'll have a new list to share with you all each week! 

This Week's Topic: Top Ten Books That Will Make You Cry

I don't cry very often when I read books. If I cry, the book I'm reading has to be a very, very emotional book. And even when I cry during a book, it's more of a subtle crying…


Because I'm usually around people while I'm reading and must exhibit some self control. But when I'm alone and the book is THAT GOOD, I'll bawl like a baby…


But that's VERY rare. Honestly, there's only one book I remember ever really, really crying when I was reading it, and that was The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks. When Jonah finds out his dad was going to die, I started crying so hard. It was so sad! But that's probably the only book that has really made me cry. Then, there are those where a couple of tears have escaped. Here are the books…

1. The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks
2. A Walk to Remember by Nicholas Sparks
3. The Fault In Our Stars by John Green 

5. Dar John by Nicholas Sparks


Sorry, I could only come up with 6, not 10, for this one. I guess that just goes to show you how rare it is for me to cry in a book!

  1. I still have to read TFIOS before the movie comes out. I was going to list The Notebook and Message in a Bottle by Sparks, but I read them so long ago I can barely remember them.

  2. The Last Song is incredibly sad. I forgot to add it to my list, but it definitely is a tearjerker!

  3. Nicholas Sparks ALWAYS gets to me! HP is also on my list (: I own Charlie St Cloud, haven't read it, but loved the movie - so I'm sure it will make me cry as well (:

  4. Oh, that Nicholas Sparks always gets you where you're vulnerable... but I haven't really read any of his work, specifically for that reason! :) Snaps to Harry Potter and The Fault in Our Stars. They were on my list, too, as well as, well, everybody else's, too! Great list!

  5. Nice picks! Truthfully, I do the slightly watery eyed cry myself when reading. Because yeah I get absorbed in the story, grow to love the characters, but a part of me still knows it's just a book. But there are definite watery eyes which is basically crying!

    I chose Harry Potter 7 too! Along with 5 & 6. And I almost chose A Walk to Remember that was my only Nicholas Sparks book because even back then I wanted to read paranormal and there wasn't any to be had, so I did turn to contemps!

    Here's my Tuesday post

    Have a GREAT day!

  6. I have never read 'A Walk to Remember' but I can watch 45 seconds of the movie (ANY part) and just start crying because I know where it is all going. It makes me nervous to read the book, haha. I'm also not a big book cryer! I will have tears sting my eyes a little bit, but very rarely do tears actually fall!
