Small Great Things | Jodi Picoult

Started this audiobook at the gym today and had to leave the elliptical twice to dry my #pooloftears

Blair_Reads I'm a sucker for a book like this. Going to put it at the top of the list! 8y

BookishKateNYC @Blairreads did you see the takeover happening on @Litsy ? 8y

badnorthern If you're on the elliptical it's not tears - it's eye sweat 😭 8y

BookishTrish @badnorthern 😂😂😂 8y

BookishTrish Just saw the #litsytakeover now. Thanks! 8y

Little Women | Louisa May Alcott

Yesterday's #pooloftears posts made me realize how long it's been since I reread Little Women @SerialReader

GlitteryOtters ? I can't remember if I mentioned it before or not, but this is my mom's favorite book. I am named after Meg and Beth (well, and part of the "Meg" also comes from her massive love of A Wrinkle In Time, but my name is about 80% because of this book). Enjoy the cryfest! 8y

angrylilasian Love this book and the sequels that followed. ❤️ 8y

TheNextBook Ooohhh Thats a great idea! @angrylilasian I have Jo's Boys I just havent had a chance to read it!

Leaving Time | Jodi Picoult

This one is a tear jerker. And full of elephant facts. And feels so magical. My first and only Jodi Picoult, I read this two years ago, and yet still find myself thinking about it. It totally sucked me in. I will for sure reread it sometime. #pooloftears #novemberland

PrincessLibrarian THIS BOOK. 8y

Life on the Refrigerator Door | Alice Kuipers

This amazing book absolutely wrecked me! It's a super quick read. I read it in a couple of hours. It starts out light and entertaining, quickly gets you invested in the mother/daughter relationship and then it just wrecks you! But it's one of the most beautiful stories I've ever read - totally worth the #PoolOfTears😭

#Novemberland

Bookworm54 So beautiful! And I loved the unique style of storytelling in this. One of my favourites but I cried most of the way through 😢💔 8y

Behind the Beautiful Forever | Katherine Boo

#Novemberland #pooloftears I'm a cryer, a BIG cryer...so picking a book or two is really difficult...honestly 100 more titles could have been chosen, but these are the first that came to mind. I'm sure as more Littens post, I'll be nodding along in agreement😭#Litsygram #ThePowerOfWords

KarenUK I'm the same... 😢😢😢😢😢 8y

LeahBergen I have Behind the Beautiful Forevers and haven't worked up the strength to plunge in 😂 8y

Cinfhen @LeahBergen next time u need a good cry or an inside view of a third world country, dive into this one! 8y

Linsy Night wrecked me! I read it in middle school -- before I even knew a book could do that to me -- and was just destroyed for a bit afterwards. 8y

Cinfhen @Linsy Night is one of the few books I've read multiple times and each time I cry harder😢😢😢 8y

When Breath Becomes Air | Paul Kalanithi

Simply put: no tissue box is equal to the task of the #pooloftears caused by this memoir of a doctor turned patient #novemberland

EvieBee Yeah. I cried my eyes out too. 8y

Pinkmeghan I can't even try it. I read his sister-in-law's blog and her posts about him had me in tears, so yeah. Maybe one day, just not now. 8y

Reviewsbylola It still hurts me to see his smiling face. So sad. 😢 8y

ClairesReads Saddest book 😥😥😥 8y

BookishTrish @britt_brooke @KarenUK I actually love the rare book that can destroy me in that way. His wife is one tough woman. 8y

BookishTrish @badnorthern @Pinkmeghan When you're ready for it, it's magic. I highly recommend reading it (though not in public.) 8y

Pinkmeghan @BookishTrish I absolutely don't doubt it's amazing, he did some writing for Cup of Jo, and it was phenomenal. 😭 8y
