30 Day Book Challenge - Day 6

Day 06 – A book that makes you sad

hmmmm, it doesn't take much, I cry very easily.

I'll go with the following

Sing You Home by Jody Picoult, the story has an IF storyline and the main character has a couple of m/c's (another character also has several m/c's). One of the few books that actually used the right words to describe the IVF process. It was tough getting through the beginning chapters.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by JK Rowling, I start crying when Snape makes the unbreakable vow and never stop. I still remember the first time I read this book, the day it came out. I waited patiently for the mailman to bring it to my door and once I started I didn't stop, I read it in 11 hours, only stopping for food and bathroom. After Snape made the unbreakable vow, I had tears streaming down my face and a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. When Dumbledore died I was a mess :( At that point I had so many emotions running through me, the biggest being WHY? Great book :)

I was a pretty big mess after Dumbledore died. I read all the books again last year, but I think a re-read, since the movies are over, is in order soon.
