what book has made you cry?

[BBBee]

last night reading alound voice kept cracking at end of half blood prince - got me thinking...

time travellers wife
birdsong
of mice and men
private peaceful

those are all I can remember for now - must be more....

Quattrocento I have only ever seen the clip they show in film complilation charts, the bit when she has to choose and I have to leave the room. I am getting shaky just thinking about it.

Twinset - I watched Sophie's choice and was really disappointed. It was very odd and not at all what I expected and not particularly heart-wrenching (believe me, I am a true soppy git too...)

i cried whilst reading Gobolino to dds the other night.....the first bit, all choked up...dds cried too

"I Don't Know How She Does It" by Allison Pearson. Read it during a particularly low time in my life and her account of a mum trying desperately to juggle work and kids just struck such a chord with me.

Dior, I was like that too... I threw the book from me & sobbed into dh's arms.. he looked slightly worried that a book could make me so emotional!

"After You'd Gone", and shamefully, a complete wallowing beach read, Suzanne's Diary For Nicholas - read it disdainfully till the sad bit, then shed stone's worth of snot and tears into my gin and tonic by the pool, in public, to the delight of my step-daughter who promptly nagged to borrow it, and the horror of DH who hid behind his sunglasses and floppy hat for the remainder of the holiday. Any thing by Gary Rhodes gives me the shudders, too.

The Ruth Picardie one.

really MrsGolfPro but that scene is heartwrenching to watch and Meryl is the queen of melodrama.

Gary Rhodes the chef?

Do you not like his cooking?

The hair! The constant reducing of perfectly good bottles of wine!! What's to like? Try his shepherd's pie recipe in British Classics - I guarantee tears before bedtime!!

Tess of the D'Urbervilles. So, so sad...

I always cry at The Railway Children - at the end when her father comes back....

"marley" made me cry when the dog dies

HP and the Goblet of Fire
HP and the Order of the Phoenix
HP and the half blood prince

I cry everytime I read these.

Will no doubt cry with the new one too!

The Subtle Knife (Philip Pullman) at the bit with Lee Scoresby/Hester...

Time Traveller's Wife.

The Book Thief....made me quite uncomfortable too.

My Best Friend's Girl It's under my bed, I can't read any more of it, I think I only read 4 or 5 chapters

Time Traveller's Wife had me sobbing.

Oh Bubblerock, keep going with My Best Friends Girl, its sooooo fantastic. I cried just reading the back cover, and I looked like I'd got myxamatosis by the time I'd finished the book but it was well worth it!! Truly rate it as one of the best books I've ever read, it changed the way I looked at relationships. Truly marvellous!!!!

Time Travellers Wife and Birdsong for me too - am not very orignal it seems!

Frost In May by Antonia White made me cry.

My absolute favourite book ever, The Shell Seekers by Rosamund Pilcher makes me cry and laugh and EVERYTHING!!!!!

The Sea The Sea by Iris Murdoch made me feel tearful in places too

peepo

first book i ever sobbed to was the outsiders...lol.

'The comforts of madness' ...by Paul Sayer.
The saddest book i ever read.
