What is Night about? how exactly is it so sad?

It's about the Holocaust and Jews being burnt alive.

Maus was extremely emotional, but the Art of Racing in the Rain probably made me cry the hardest. Just... after all that... so good, but so sad.

The Joy Luck Club
Several chapters left me in tears. The worst was when the mother loses one of her children in the ocean.

I finished that book for school and yes, I was sadden by it at several parts. I also saw the movie. ):

So far, the saddest book I ever read was The Lost Supreme: The Life of Dreamgirl Florence Ballard by Peter Benjaminson.

Her life story was so sad, which includes being brutally expelled from the Supremes, which she created it, to having her money stolen by her lawyer. She was kidnapped at one time, and her husband left her with three daughters to take care of so she went on welfare. And just when she was about to make a comeback in the music industry, she dies from coronary thrombosis at the young age of 32. It was tough to read, but I managed to finish the book in two days.

Before I Die & Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and Love Lessons...about a teacher/student relationship. Omg, it was sad.

[Shadowfax]

Fluke was pretty damn sad :'( And when Lord of the rings came to an end I got rather emotional as it's the best trilogy i've ever read.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned My Little Dashie yet.

[Scars Mate]

Boy in the striped pijamas. I sobbed my heart out.

[Tabby]

Some fantasy book called "The Bible" :c

Now, the sad thing on it is how too people took it far too serious xDDDDDDD

There's only one book that's ever made me cry. I'm not entirely sure why, but it was The Time Traveler's Wife. I just cried and cried haha.
