As said in the subject, which books have made you cry? Mine are listed below:

The Amber Spyglass by Philip Pullman - The ending was so sad, and I cried a little bit.

The Shadow in the North by Philip Pullman - When Fred died, I cried and I remember the first time I read it I sat there thinking "He's not dead is he? I must have read it wrong - he can't be killed off!"

Noughts & Crosses by Malorie Blackman - I would definitely recommend this to everybody. The morals in the story are really good - and the ending sure is a tear jerker - I cried myself to sleep when I read it for the first time (and the time after that and the time after that and so on so forth!)

Raider's Tide by Maggie Prince - I cried the very first time I read this, though I can't remember the exact part. This is a very short book, and quite good.

The Fox Cub Bold by Colin Dann - Part of the "Farthing Wood" series, I was only about 10 when I read this for the first time. The part when Bold dies was what made me cry. I've read it about twice since then, and both times at this point I've had a lump in my throat!

The Georgia Nicolson series (Angus, Big Knickers, Nunga Nunga's and Nuddy-Pants) by Louise Rennison - Okay, so this one only made me cry with laughter, but still, read them - they're absolutely hilarious!

Just HDM and...nobody laugh...one of the Animorph Books. I forget which one (got it out of the library) but it was one of the extra long ones and it was really sad at the end.

HDM and The Shadow in the North BIG TIME. And Abhorsen. Don't ask why. It just DID. *pouts* I can't really remember what else. Oh, The Giver. When they kill the little baby. And Lord of the Rings, at the end. That's all I can remember right now.


Hahahahahahaha Blighty.

I've got the first 13, but they changed the cover design which threw me and then the author seemed to go into hyperdrive and I couldn't keep up. Been reading random ones from the library ever since.

I used to like animorphs, but after the third one they're all the same... nothing new ever happens... it got really dull, and by then I was on to better things.
