Annie | 43 comments Can you guys recommend books that made you cry? And not like, tearing up cry, but like SOBBING ON THE FLOOR level of crying. Been wanting to read a sad book for ages but nothing seems sad enough for me lol.

Leyla McIntyre | 4 comments Blood over broken heaven made me cry recently. Empire of the Damned made me sob� but you have to read Empire of the Vampire first to understand what is happening.

Jade | 19 comments The only book that has made me cry this year, and like actually sob for a solid hour while I was reading the last 60 pages or so was "The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy". I can't promise it will make you cry and I'm gonna be fr I thought it was a very average book up till the last pages hit. Up till that point I thought the book was a 3 star read at best.

Cee Pinto (ceegpinto) | 103 comments I cried most of ACOMAF/ACOWAR and Nightbane, not exactly sad books, but I cried like a baby.

I also cried a lot while reading A Journey to Us by Lady B.

I remember reading The Notebook and The Last Song as a teenager and feeling absolutely devastated.
