Hey all you cry babies! I know a few of you have cried while reading a book. Something made you cry out of sadness or cry out of laughter. I admit, I'm a cry baby too. I cried when reading "Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes, "Bastard out of Carolina" by Dorothy Allison, "The Color Purple" by Alice Walker and of course, "Charlotte's Web" by E.B. White. Wow, my first book cry. I hate spiders, but boy did I loved me some Charlotte.
There are some great books that I heard will make you cry. Some I have yet to read and are waiting for me on my bookshelf. A few I have just recently read and a link is provided with my review. A couple of the books listed are also on this week's book giveway, so check them out.
So for all my cry babies, here's a list for you. I hope you enjoy.
P.S. Have you read any of the books on this list? What books did I leave off the list? Are there some books that you've read that made you cry? Or perhaps, someone told you it made them cry? (I know some won't admit it, so a friend's, friend's, auntie's cousin told you right?) ;-)
