>>8083980

100 pages. Infinite sadness.

>>8083980
The Brothers Karamazov

Stoner, specifically the part where Stoner remembers his wife and daughter as they were before everything went to shit.

Tons of books, most recently the Death of Ivan Ilych reminded me of my feels when I was having chemo.

>>8083980
I cried at the end of Grapes of Wrath. Something about the quasi-biblical feel it had just fucked me up.

Almost cried after finishing The Master and Margarita. The description of Ivan Bezdomni's life at the end is heart-wrenching.

That little dancing bear in Blood Meridian that gets shot and keeps trying to dance as it dies did something to me.

I just felt weird picturing it.

The sound and the fury
Something about the part where Quentin makes the faux suicide pact with caddy on the shore of the branch really got me
Also the part with Benjy and caddy on the porch

>>8083980
Gravity's Rainbow made me cry, you faggot.

>>8083980
The Dark Tower
Eddie
I can't say anymore

>>8084346

I miss crying at books. Ever since I'm on anti-depressants I can't cry anymore, and it makes me feel like I don't fully emotionally experience novels anymore.

>>8085221

>>8085221

Stoner and not just a trickle

>>8086239
His gulag archipelago had a thousand feels as well

Aegypt cycle, John Crowley. The bittersweetness that comes from spending a lifetime trying to make sense of the world, history, god, and in the meantime the world and life has passed you by.

>>8084341
Never let me not cry is the book he's talking about, idiot.

Percy Jackson

This made me cry like a bitch in grade school

>>8085158

I had forgotten how pathetic and depressing that scene was.

>>8086923
It's one of those books that shows you how reality surpasses fantasy.

It made me feel really uncomfortable reading it in the winter by the fireside.

>>8083980
The Spy Who Came out From the Cold.

If Hyperion doesn't make you cry you're a tryhard.

Notes from the Underground made me tear up when he fucking laid it on to Liza. When he was describing the love a father has for his daughter and all.

I've cried reading several of Dostevsky's and cried like a bitch at the end of Of Mice and Men and A Separate Peace. But yeah, there's been many other books I've cried reading too

>>8084341
Mason and Dixon, Never Let Me Vurt the Virgin Suicides.

Revolutionary Road's ending was pretty tough, had to hold back the tears.
Also The Butcher Boy. I felt so much empathy for Francie.

The only book that's ever made me actually shed a tear was The Great Gatsby.
The whole ending monolog just hit me like a bus full of cement. The entire story I understood EXACTLY where Gatsby was coming from, and the narrator basically showing that nobody like Gatsby could ever find actual happiness in this world hit a bit too close to home.

>>8083980
one time when i was drunk i dropped beetroot juice all over my textbook and cried like a little bitch in my dorm room, does that count?

>>8084371
This. Also:
The Age of Innocence
Of Mice and Men

When I read the book in class this year I felt it was very comfy with its imagery, like a Wes-Anderson movie

I cried during "We Were Here", dang Mong

>>8085168
Bro, i finished that book last monday, and has not been able to read shit since. The collapse of the Compsons is really fucking sad, and the foreshadowing of when they were kids really got me, because i have sisters, and i empathize with Quentin a lot.

>>8088216
I saw a lot of myself in the Underground man, and i do not know if that is a good thing.

>>8092130
Same here, except I know it's not a good thing. The man is pathetic, neurotic insect and apparently so am I.

I almost cried while reading Wolf Totem. There's a scene with a swan. Fuck

>>8083980
