Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
please read War Horse by Michael Morpurgo - it might seem as if it is for children but the plight of beautiful horses being taken from the fields to 1st World War trenches truly touches your heart and makes you weep for men and animals caught up in senseless conflict!. IreneWww@QuestionHome@Com

Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes

It's in a form of a diary, about the character Charles Gordon,who has been mentally impaired and a genius in one lifetime!. His discovery of his own past as the story progressed, and the regression of his newfound mental ability in the last part of the novel, really really made my cry to bits and pieces!. Made wonder a lot about my own existence and value to this world, in this lifetime!.

and of course, Chinese Cinderella by Adeline Yen Mah and Child called "It" by David Pezler are books that made me cry in almost every turn of the page!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

cage of stars by Jacquelyn Mitchard

Ronnie Swan is a 12 year-old-girl playing hide-and-seek with her younger sisters when a stranger brutally murders those sisters, and her life is changed forever!. Cage of Stars opens with this sad tale, and the first portion of the book both contrasts the Swan family’s struggles to cope with the tragedy with descriptions of their previously idyllic life as a Mormon family living in a close-knit Utah mountain community!. The tone of the book is both descriptive and instructive, as Ronnie continually needs to educate others on the practices and beliefs of her Mormon faith!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Like you, Charles Dickens seems to make me cry a lot (I cried at the end of 'Tale of Two Cities' and in 'Nicholas Nickleby')!. I also cried at the end of 'Of Mice and Men', even though someone had talked so loud about some of the ending that I knew something bad occurred (ahem!)!.

Atonement by Ian McEwan
The Age of Innocence by Edith Wharton
Night by Elie Wiesel

Wuthering Heights - the book kept me enchanted untill the very end and there were many points where I was moved to tears!. also, Anne Franks Diary - the note of what happened to her after they were discoved, and especially sad was this part: "I can still see her standing at the door and looking down the camp street as a group of gypsy girls was driven by the crematory, and Anne watched them go and cried!. And she cried also when we marched past Hungarian children who had already been waiting half a day in the rain in front of the gas chambers because it was not yet their turn!. And Anne nudged me and said: "Look, look!. Their eyes!.!.!." "Www@QuestionHome@Com
