*In this case, please use The Notebook to mean “Cannot Stop All the Tears”
Top Ten Tuesday is a feature over at The Broke and the Bookish. This week’s theme is “Top Ten Books If You Like X tv show/movie/comic/play etc. (basically any sort of other entertainment)”. I chose Top Ten Books If You Like The Notebook*. So this is a list of books that made me cry so hard my eyes burned. Just like The Notebook. That’s really the only thing they have in common. All. The. Tears. Also, there is absolutely no order to this list.
Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins. I see a pin on Pinterest all the time that has the book “All My Friends Are Dead” with “Mockingjay” on the top. Because that pretty much sums it up. How could you not cry during that book?
The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I don’t know if there was a moment in this book during which I was not sobbing like an infant, even though I was often smiling through tears.
Allegiant by Veronica Roth. Because let’s face it: if you didn’t need an antidepressant before you read it, you sure do now.
Slammed by Colleen Hoover. This book was both beautiful and heartwrenching. I loved the charming moments, but I cried like my face was on fire.
If I Stay by Gayle Forman. Pretty sure if you read just the synopsis of this one you cry.
Monsters of Men by Patrick Ness. This book gave me so many feels that I don’t even know where to begin. Yes there were lots of tears, hence its spot on this list. But I just need to clarify that there was so much more.
The Woodlands by Lauren Nicolle Taylor. I had a lot of feelings during all the books so far, but I most vividly recall sobbing during a few very poignant scenes in this one. Sobbing.
Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver. Again, I mean, the “death” part is in the actual synopsis, so yeah.
The Host by Stephenie Meyer. I never expected this book to make me feel so much. But the emotions that Wanda goes through the reader also goes through, and it definitely was fodder for a lot of tears along the way.
The Edge of Never by J.A. Redmerski. I don’t even know, I just loved these characters, and the whole story. And the story provokes the crying.
Which books make you sob like a baby?
Awesome list there are few things on here I really want to read!

Thanks 🙂 I loved them all! Except Allegiant. Grr.
I agree with so many of these. I read IF I STAY last night and cried so much. Then I watched the trailer this morning and started balling all over again.
Oh I know, that one is a real tearjerker! And I didn’t know the trailer was out! Thanks so much, off to google it!
I completely agree with you on these tear-jerkers. I love reading a book that really moves me and the same with watching tv shows/movies.
I do too, it is like, some kind of masochistic sort of thing really. Sometimes you just need a good cry!
I loved If I Stay so much. I still remember where I was when I was reading and how much I sobbed.

Right? Ugh, all the feels with that book! I enjoyed Where She Went too, but the tears in If I Stay were like a running faucet!
I try and stay away from those that I KNOW will make me cry, but then there are a few you never expect to make you cry and it’s almost like a nice surprise that you felt so much for a book that you never expected to. Great list! I am also a new follower on G+ 🙂

Aw thanks! Following you back 🙂 And I am a sucker for a tearjerker, but I totally agree- like, with Monsters of Men, I never thought it’d make me sob, but I was so into it that I did!
Cool list, some of these seem like a stretch, but I like it!
Well, I said that really the only thing they had in common with The Notebook was that they made me cry a lot, and they all did that!
All of these books made me sob. Others with that power include: Anything by Rainbow Rowell (seriously, she gets an A+ in the FEELS), Wonder by R.J.Palacio, and The Blossoming Universe of Violet Diamond.
I have to read some Rainbow Rowell really soon. I am ashamed to admit I haven’t yet! I am going to check out the others too!
