I've been reading some sad-theme books lately so I was wondering what people say the saddest book they've read is. Recently I finished Handle with Care by Jodi Picoult.

Very true, I still hold on to the notion that nothing in this world can trump the human spirit but it did shake it up a bit.

Handle with care is such a good book!
I've only cried over one book... Where the Red Fern Grows :'( it makes me cry everytime!
The Kite Runner is also a really sad book, although i didn't cry over it. My Sisters Keeper gets me pretty sad too.

Where the Red Fern Grows was a really good book. The ending was probably the saddest part. My Sisters Keeper was also really good.

SHE WAS SO CLOSE!! :'(
fuck sarah dessen or whoever writes all those tragic books. "once upon a time there were two sisters and one of them had a fatal disease and DIED the end" basically sums up a majority of her books.
[i know i put this in the horny thread, but still x_x] Candy by Luke Davies is a pretty sad book at the end. SHOWS HOW ADDICTIVE DRUGS CAN REALLY GET ;_____;

I remember reading that one. It was suspenseful throughout most of it.
yeah it's probably the mildest of the ones i listed.
night is just mindfuck through the whole book, and the scene in i've lived a thousand years where the girl's mother gets crushed by the barracks, that always disturbs me.
i always saw girls in my school reading her books, i thought they were romances. hurm.
never read anything by her personally.

yeah all the girls in my school reading them too. "OH GOD THIS BOOK IS SO CUTE BUT SO SAD I'VE NEVER CRIED AT A BOOK BEFORE" shut up all of her books are the same exact thing. one of them dies, why did you not know this when you picked up your third sarah dessen book?
never read anything by her either. thank god.

For the most part any books by Jodi Picoult seem to have a sad storyline to it. Her newest one is sad.
My thoughts on this book exactly. Depressing, but not exactly sad. It certainly gets you to think though.∞;4921131 said:
I read that last year for english, and it is definitely my nomination for the saddest book ever. That part you mentioned was certainly sad, but that book is just depression, pain, and misery the entire way through. The worst part is though, where a lot of the books mentioned here were fiction, this book is entirely real. What was going on in the world at the time was just haunting, and this book practically gives you a front row seat.
I can't really pick one book that was the saddest for me, though I often find myself crying from them. I have to say though, the book that probably made me cry the most was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. God, I was sobbing for most of the book.
I don't read many books,but the one that made me cry so much was Bridge to Terabithia.I was like 15 when I read it.Broke my heart
don't let this one go unnoticed folks gatdam that last chapter was brutal
