Kayla | 14 comments Best quote:“If you lose a flower, you get another flower," Maya reasons. "If you lose the ring, everyone is sad forever. The ring bearer has much more power.”
You sound like Gollum,” A.J. says.
“Who’s Gollum?” Maya wants to know. “Someone very nerdy that your father likes,” Amelia says.

Jasmine (pikakejazz) Was this book really sad? I have it on my to-read list but it didn't occur to me that it could fit this challenge based on the synopsis...


Maple (maplerie) | 307 comments Jasmine, I'm not much of a crier, but this book got me a few times and I found that I had some "dust in my eye" especially at the end. If you read this you may want to keep a box of Kleenex handy.

Amy Tucker (aldtucker) | 91 comments This has been on my TBR list for a while, and when I saw it listed here, I figured I'd give it a try. You never know if a book is going to make you cry until it makes you cry. In any case, I did tear up at the end, and I'm counting it, unless another reduces me to a blubbering idiot....
