Which Books/Novels Made You Emotional? by Babe2sure(f): 10:47am On Oct 22, 2013
My fellow book lovers, have you ever read a book that stir your emotions to the point of crying or make you empathize with a character?
Mine are:
1)The notebook by Nicholas Sparks.
2)Blue nights by Joan Didion
3)The fault in our stars-John Green
4)The time travellers wife- Andrew Niffen
5)Master of the game-by Sidney sheldon(when Jamie had stroke and died,I was sad).
Pls,let's know yours.

1. The Green Mile - Stephen King (cried when John Coffey was killed for a crime he didnt commit).
2. The Chambers - John Grisham (even though Sam was a KKK member, his death by electric chair did sadden me).

Not cry, no. It's never that serious. But deep/sad and I was really touched. And The Mountains Echoed-Khaled Hosseini. Roots-Alex Haley. TFIOS-John Green. The Kite Runner-Khaled Hosseini.

i have read Achebe's TFA, more than a thousand times, and it was obeireka (nt sure about d spelling though, Okonkwo's friend) line that did d magic, 'the white man has put a knife btw us, and now things are beginning to fall apart' (paraphrased) when d discovered okonkwo dangling body. JOM is another one and Africa night entertainment. My African novels, i av not bin seeing mo of them, so i decided to go completely western.

Re: Which Books/Novels Made You Emotional? by Juliedora79(f): 1:45pm On Dec 05, 2014
Sons of fortune- John fletcher ( they were twins separated at birth, nd lived their lives as opponents academically, socially and politically)


Joys of motherhood- Buchi Emechetta. To think she suffered all that and only payment she got was a good burial. Lesspn I learnt- to treat my mum like Gold while she's still alive. a grand burial after death is worthless.


The mayor of casterbridge- Touching story sha.

Tiny Sunbirds Far Away by Christie Waston stirred my emotions.
Hope's Wristwatch(short stories and poems) by Tony Marinho is another good read. #TeamAfricanLiterature

Whaoo! I will really like to read about twins who were separated at birth. I think it will make an interesting read.

I was at the brink of shedding tears but I just held back when I read the ending of that novel. I used to read a lot of novels back then.
