What's teh last book you readd that made you cry? The first book I can remember reading that made me cry was Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson, which I read in around 1981 (so only a few years after it was published). Anyone who has read the book (or seen one of the movie adaptations) will know why I cried. The last book that made me cry was Carry Me Home by Dorothy Adamek, where I cried for a similar reason ... but won'tsay any more because of #spoilers. But that's a few years ago now. I do have to admit that I don't consciously seek out books that will make me cry. I prefer books that make me laugh or feel good ... which is why I favour romance (with the occasional segue into romantic suspense, rom com, or women's fiction). What about you? What's the last book you read that made you cry?

I read for entertainment, so prefer books that make me laugh or feel good … which is why I favour romance with the occasional segue into romantic suspense, rom com, or women’s fiction.
