If you want to cry just watch that cutscene in tears of war 2 where dom has to put down his wife and goes berserk.

Also read Berserk.
I don't own any gaming consoles lol.

Most anything by Steinbeck.
The Grapes of Wrath gets me every time.
Good picks. The Grapes of Wrath never made me cry, and I think even Steinbeck said he kinda painted a rosier picture than was the reality. Even though he killed off so many characters and wrote a true tragedy.

I have teared up throughtout the entire Storm Light Archive series. Kaladin Stormblessed is a tortured soul. The scene that most recently got me was he has basicaly been dealing with battle shock and has PTSD and cant fight anymore. Some shit happeneds and he finds himself in a position where he is going to have to go beast mode.

Kaladin stood with one hand on the wall, one hand on the door, breathing deeply. Wind surged through the window behind, brushing past him, bearing with it two twisting windspren that moved as lines of light.

“Kaladin …” Syl said, landing on his shoulder.
“It was a nice dream, wasn’t it, Syl?” he asked. “That we could escape? Find peace at long last?”
“Such a wonderful dream,” she whispered.
“You ready for this?” he asked. She nodded.
Yeah this a series that I absolutely will read. People keep comparing it to asoiaf. Not great for a book club though bc long af lol

Interesting. The one guy in our book club picked Into the Wild as his first book, and Supertramp character was an avid reader of Jack London among many others. I'd never really read that genre of wilderness adventure book but a lot of people seem to like them. I wonder how many young men have died after getting super into these books.

Honestly don't think a book has made me cry. Then I try to go back over the list of books I've read it's mostly Catch-22, 1984, The Stranger, Notes from the Underground, Nausea, Waiting for Godot, Fahrenheit 451, A Long Way Gone (This one *may* have), Skinny Bitch, Hobbit / LoTRs, Foundation Trilogy, Dark Tower Series, Dark Elf Trilogy, bunch of Steven King and RL Stein, half of Dracula, and a couple Anne Rice books. Julius Ceasar / Romeo and Juliet (maybe this one too), Game of Thrones series, Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trilogy. Rant and Invisible Monsters (LOVE this book). Siddhartha.



That's probably the majority. Not too many tear jerkers.

omg cecily.

some great books here, and some i've never read! my dad wanted me to read catch-22 forever ago. i'll look into a long way gone, it looks very sad.

but you absolutely should read eleanor oliphant is completely fine! i found it on the list of books for infps on goodreads and sort of picked it on a whim but it hit me so hard, and the titular character is hilarious. it's set in scotland and i love eleanor more than i do most people i know irl.
