Parvathy | 93 comments For me some of them are

Stolen A letter to my captor by Lucy Christopher by Lucy Christopher

Even before reading this book I knew that I am not going to get a happy ending but there was something challenging about this book that made it hard to stay away from. Heart broken I was in the end but loved the book so much that I will reread it any day to get the same feeling.

The Pact by Jodi Picoult by Jodi Picoult

Most Jodie Picoult books makes you feel emotional. The Pact is not an exception. But curiosity got the better of me and I read this book.
Guess what it does make you feel sad but that is not the only emotion you feel. You also feel helpless and outraged. But above all you feel a lingering sense of hope that makes it a worth read.

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Millennium, #1) by Stieg Larsson by Stieg Larsson

Fair warning about the book tells you that it is not meant for the weak hearted. But that didn't stop it from becoming a bestseller and me from reading it. Guess I never knew how weak hearted I was before reading this book.

Another book I fear is going to make me an emotional wreck in the end but makes me want to read it anyway is Forbidden by Tabitha Suzuma by Tabitha Suzuma

I guess I will read it one of these days.

I also checked this book out. The ratings are making me want to try this book but the whole unwinding thing is scaring me off.

For me there are Forbidden by Tabitha Suzuma and Stolen A letter to my captor by Lucy Christopher

Those are the most emotional, heart breaking and beautiful written book i ever read.

And maybe Timeless (Timeless, #1) by Alexandra Monir I didn't understand the end - if it was good or bad, but i felt bad like something bad had happened and i have no idea why, but days after i read it, when i remembered about it i felt like crying.

Shreya.Booked (shreyabooked) | 2 comments For me it's got to be Shirley Jackson's works. So disturbing, but i can't stay away from them. I read 'We Have Always Lived in the Castle' in one night, and then had nightmares about it, LOL. I love her work, she's an amazing, amazing writer.

Melanie | 4 comments For me the book has to be My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult . Any Jodi Picoult book is enough to make me cry but that doesn't always stop me.
