- Bridge to Teribithia by Katherine Paterson- It was the first book I read where a lead character died and I was just really shocked. That's my only explanation for the sudden burst of emotion.
- The Book Thief by Martin Zusak
- Les Miserables by Victor Hugo
- Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beacher Stowe
- Carry on Mr. Bowditch by Jean Lee Latham
- Rakkety Tamm by Brian Jacques
- Little Women by Louise May Alcott
- Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince- Just a little emotional because of you know what.
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows- Because it ended.
- O Pioneers! by Willa Cather

I've come to realize that I feel far more emotional over movies/TV shows then books, maybe because I am actually seeing it. While I have teared up for a select few movies and TV shows, I haven't ever actually cried. Then again, as I have mentioned before, I don't read or watch a lot of sad books or movies.
Linking up with The Broke and the Bookish.
