I didn't really cry...I just teared up when a character died in the third book of rick riordan's percy jackson series...

very emotional series, yar.

Didn't read that far into the series. I stopped after The Hunter's Blades trilogy. Kinda done with Drizzt and crew by then. I did hear about pretty much everyone dying though.

I read Bridge to Terabithia in school, and for that reason I never bothered watching the movie. I remember it being a sad book but can't remember if I cried at all. I don't recall that she was looking for the main character though. I though she was playing in their secret place by herself because the boy for whatever reason wouldn't come that day.

...I think I cried tears of joy when I finished Salvatore's Ghost King. About damned time he killed someone off, though, it seemed almost as if he was reacting to that criticism of his books and went a bit overboard, killing cast-members left and right.

Of course, he's pretty much cleansed the palette with his latest book and is working with a whole new cast of characters now. Not that that's doing him any favors...

I hated about half the main characters in that series including Drizzt himself. but I love Jarlaxle, Entreri, and all the Cleric Quintet characters.
I struggled through a bunch of his books, especially the one that was all about Wulfgar (I hated him most). but I ate up the Cleric Quintet in no time at all. I also cried when the wizard chick blew herself up in the ...the last one of those. I can't keep them all straight since I read them from the giant collector's edition all bound in one book.

Suzerain of Sheol 05-25-2011 04:51 PM

Oh, well, you might like his new trilogy that he's working on, as

I believe the book you are talking about Lucid, is Spine of the World after Wulfgar comes back from hell and it wierded out for a while. I didn't like that book either though I liked Wulfgar in his earlier days and post depressive spazz. I was generally not a 'fan' of the characters besides Drizzt, but then, I was 14 and angsty at the time I read Homeland so naturally I would like his character. It was the also the first fantasy book I had ever read so this whole elf thing was totally new to me.

I read the odd short story about Drizzt as well and one of the ones I liked was one about an educated goblin slave who's in a situation very much like Drizzt in that he's special among his race, but being a goblin, no one cares.

Hiccup 05-26-2011 04:48 PM

Plenty, The Lord of The Rings, Last of the Mohicans to name a few. Others I'm sure that just aren't coming to mind, but ja.

Chi 05-27-2011 01:54 AM

I just finished reading Alex Cross's Trial and few parts made me cry because of one character being like, "I love you" and the other being like, "I just don't think it's the same anymore." D:

Annie, are you telling me a vet book would make you cry? xD;

Poggio 05-27-2011 02:51 AM

In a nutshell. The yearling. It is the only book that has made me cry. Alot of them have come close and a lot have made me go wtf but none like the Yearling.

dragoness129 05-30-2011 03:04 AM

Yes! So many books!
I have cried in the Harry Potter series, the most in the Half-Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows ones.
I cried in some of the Dragon Keeper series books.
Inkspell caused me to cry. I wonder if Inkdeath will cause me to cry also when I get around to reading it.
Some of the Redwall series has brought tears to my eyes as well.
I am sure there are more, but I cannot remember them off the top of my head.
I am just really softhearted and in love with the characters and get so sad when they die.

DarkWolfrin 06-01-2011 04:56 PM

For some reason some books I am sad that they are ending, but no cry.

V. Lisette 07-08-2011 06:24 PM

Harry Potter and Pendragon (by DJ MacHale) made me cry, but mostly because I was either frustrated at the cliffhangers or sad it was over.

Feythfull 07-08-2011 08:41 PM

I have only cried for one book and that was when I was about 13 years old. I can't remember what it was called but it was about bats and it was by Kennith Opple and one of them was called sunwing i don't remember what the third one in the trilagy was called but thats the one where I cried.

Oh wait I think there as another one I read as a kid too that made me dry it was about dragons and there were 2 humans and 3 baby dragons and the humans were trying to get the baby dragons to the rest of the dragons after their mother died and the one baby was weak so the one human offered to stay with her while the other human and 2 babies went on ahead and then he killed the weak baby and ate her heart because it made you live for ever or something like that and that made me cry.

Kalei 07-09-2011 09:31 PM

The only one that I can think of at the top of my head is Of Mice And Men by Jhon Steinbeck. We were reading the ending in class and I was tearing up. I feel a little embarassed about it though, because I was the only one who cried in the whole class.

Echo-chan713 07-09-2011 10:53 PM

I don't remember well on what book made me cry but I remember a part in a book that gave me the sniffles of sadness, the book was called The Bad Place by Dean Kootz and what happened was one of the Private Investigator had a brother who had Down Syndrome and he lived in this special facility for the special needs and this lunatic son from a psycho Hermaphrodite mother/father killed his roommate and him with a pair of safety scissors and spread their blood all over the place, killed everyone in the facility, and then burned the place down.

I read that in High School where they restricted on the manga content but not on the novel

Holly 07-10-2011 12:08 AM

I cried when the main character's sister died during the book Kira-Kira.
; A ;

Echo-chan713 07-10-2011 12:41 AM

Then I cried while reading a manga called Bizenghast when the main character's best friend died

Holly 07-10-2011 12:45 AM

I've cried multiple times during the manga Bokura Ga Ita.
> A >;

Most of the time it wasn't cry worthy...
But it tore me up for some reason!

I just can't do it. D:

I never read Marley and Me, but I watched the movie and I bawled my eyes out in the end, but I didn't cry when the main character died from Pancreatic cancer in the movie Charley

T e c h n i c o l o r 07-15-2011 01:56 AM

xD when I read The Last Song I cried.
Sad, I know, but the end really got to me, even though I knew what would happen D<

Jenny Harper 07-15-2011 05:09 PM

I think I shed a tear when Sirius died in HP, Dumbledore's untimely death made me WTF? Not cry.

Uhm...The Anita Blake series by Laurell K Hamilton has gotten a few from me. The first one built up this great male character and he dies in the end. I re-read it a few weeks ago and forgot that he died, made me sad again.

Uhmmmm...what else? I think that's it. I'm more visual than anything.

Lost_Muse 07-21-2011 06:58 PM

A few moments in The Hunger Games series made me cry, when Rue died I swear I cried my eyes out. Primrose's death made me tear up a little too.

Sirantha 08-04-2011 12:48 AM

The Sirantha Jax series by Ann Aguirre has made me cry a few times...
One time though in the third book I cried for like 5 minutes. D:
THe main character lost her lover in the beginning of the series but blocks out the memories and she has a dream about him... It's just so sad. ;.;
I had my firend read it and she cried even without a backstory.

Quiet Man Cometh 08-06-2011 05:58 PM

Has a book ever made me cry...yes, and stop reminding me about it! :p

Echo-chan713 08-07-2011 09:17 PM

This is kinda sad but when I read Bridge to Terabithia (i think that's the name spelled) I laughed when Leslie died, while everyone cried and put on a frown face I laughed

Lioshika 08-08-2011 10:15 PM

No. I don't think I've every cried reading a book.

Jurinjo 08-14-2011 11:03 AM

I have but they were tears of joy....the man finally proposed to her. and the way he did it was so simple and adorable.

Would you believe me if I said I'm a man in real life? xD
I can't remember the name of the book though. Just that after that one I read "My Name is Chloe" (Releasing my inner woman! lol) I actually did shed small tears caues I could relate to her at the time.

MuseSick 08-14-2011 12:15 PM

Surprisingly, I've had books made me cry.
Which makes me feel weird since I've never actually cried over things like that. (a.k.a, movies, news articles, that sorta junk)
But books that have made would be...
The Outsiders
The Perks Of Being A Wall Flower
and a book called Deadline.
The Outsiders- I think everyone has read.
The Perks of Being A Wall Flower, I kind of had a lot to relate with that since I just started highschool, and all of my friends go to a different school and such.
And Deadline- is actually about a boy who has been diagnosed with a terminal blood disease, and he's 18, so he doesn't tell anyone because his family his bad enough as it is, and he doesn't want them to worry.
(His Mum always stay's in the bedroom with the shades drawn doors locked, his Dad can barley handle it and his younger brother is already worried and such, and junk and yeah) So he goes through the year, not telling people but trying to change things in their small town and stuff~
It sounds lame from how I describe it. But it's really good : 3

Jurinjo 08-14-2011 12:35 PM

I didnt' have to read Outsiders for my school but my brother did.
Deadline actually sounds interesting to read to me.

17th 08-21-2011 09:11 PM

No...but plenty of books have made me angry. D:

boys 09-17-2011 07:44 AM

LOL @dent.

i coudlnt through my book agaisnt the wall... unles it was mine and something jsut totally shocked me.
but yes, plenty of books had made me cry.. > u<

too many to list, but Curse as dark As Gold made me cry.
I don't think it was amde for it, but it just.... did D:

Oliver8607 04-26-2012 04:33 PM

Many books have made me cry haha I always cry when someone important dies :'(

Kaderin Triste 04-29-2012 04:19 PM

There have been a few books I can think of that have made me cry.
Harry Potter (books 5 and 7) both had parts that made me cry.
A Ring of Endless Light by Madeleine L'Engle also.
Can't think of any others at the moment.

Ludovico 04-29-2012 06:34 PM

I didn't read A ring of Endless light. I think Many Waters almost made me cry but the first and only one I can remember is the Yearling.

Illusion 04-29-2012 06:43 PM

I think I shed a tear for a few books.. The only time I can think is when I read Little Brother (Totally not the book you think it is, its actually a book about a cyber geek rebellion against the State of California.) I was very emotional during some of the crap the kid had to go through in the book. But other then that I can't think of any, if there was one I don't think I'd like to remember it.

Kali_Namir 04-29-2012 11:13 PM

I will admit, I Absolutely Bawled My Eyes Out while reading the last Harry Potter books. I basically cried during the entire battle scene...it was ridiculous!!!

Then again, quite a few books have made me cry. I just get sucked into the books.

I think the first one was Where The Red Fern Grows...

Asami 04-29-2012 11:17 PM

I have cried over many books ;-;
So many sad things

Usagi 04-30-2012 08:29 AM

I admittedly don't read too much. I do enjoy reading but it takes full attention and I rarely have time to focus full attention. That being said, I can't remember every book that has made me cry.

I can, however, remember the latest one. Desperation by Stephen King, when one of the main characters died. I really liked him and he died in such a...well a horrible way.

Rinni 04-30-2012 09:46 AM

I know it's stupid, but one of the "Chicken Noodle Soup for the Soul" books made me cry. It was right after I'd just lost my best friend of 10 years, and one of the stories covered it....yeah. The similarities were bad enough, but the story had a happy-ish ending. Which reminded me that I didn't....and yeah. Started crying.

I think part of that was from pent-up emotion, though.
