 | Little Women (Unabridged Classics) by Louisa May Alcott
Buy new: $9.95 / Used from: $2.39 A classic crying book, more for girls (although, probably all these are). Warning, there are several areas of the book that will have you breaking out the Kleenex.

|
 | The Color of Water 10th Anniversary Edition by James McBride

 | Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Book 6) by J.K. Rowling
Buy new: $9.35 / Used from: $4.49 I'm puting this in as almost a private joke. !! Make sure to read the books previous if you're new to the series!! It's just that I cried so hard reading this book that my husband told me I couldn't keep reading the series, if I was going to act like this.
|
 | I Am Legend by Richard Matheson
Buy used from: $2.89 Before Will Smith, there was this book. Poor Robert Neville, and his weird neighbors!! There is also some great short stories.
|
 | She's Come Undone (Oprah's Book Club) by Wally Lamb
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Lots of good crying scenes, but you'd expect that from an Oprah's Book Club book! Besides that, there's an intricate story and complex characters (Grandma's my favorite).
|
 | Forrest Gump: A Novel by Winston Groom
Buy used from: $9.99 Yes, if the book was good enough to make a movie, you know the book is better. Don't miss!

 | The Giver by Lois Lowry
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $1.24 Good book to read to your kids and get them to cry with you.
|
 | Wisdom of Our Fathers: Lessons and Letters from Daughters and Sons by Tim Russert
Buy new: $10.04 / Used from: $0.01 Oh my Pete! Some of these stories had me crying my contacts out! My husband actually bought this book, but I was the one that read it. Notice it's the only non-fiction book. I typically only read fiction, so enjoy this blip I found off my normal radar.
